Good morning! I have finished the Coop.. it’s nice but I am a little disappointed in the size.. I thought it would be bigger? When the ducklings are grown, their heads will reach the top I think:-( Guess we will see.. Now I’m going to get the lamps set up so that the babies can move in almost immediately.. I threw out two more eggs yesterday that had went bad.. Duck eggs are just nasty. But I now have Six strong babies that I can see.. View attachment 278685
A little child's wading pool is fun with ducklings...they're fun even if they are nuts.

Okay as promised. No pics but a video of Jarrod's school doing their school jamming session. The video is 16minutes long so be warned and cuts off at the end because I had no more space available, sorry about that. I think that they did an awesome job. But it is long so feel free to skip it as it is also a lot of data. I won't be offended at all.

You are right. The young people did an awesome job. I enjoyed every second of it.

The family made a long day trip to Daytona Beach today. National Breeders Reptile Expo this weekend.It was fun.

So much for NOT coming home with any livestock... :oops:

0.0.2 spotted turtles (possibly 1.1.0 with the breeder's educated/experienced guess).

0.1.0 bearded dragon, probable female, mostly red(s) at the moment (should develop blue barring later).

I/we have no willpower! :rolleyes::D

Pictures tomorrow! :)

It will be OK while they are small - but when they grow maybe you could add an eggstension!!;)

Dang it anyway! I hate when this happens. You get used to seeing the same colors and fonts, etc on your computer then for no reason something about it changes all on its own. I clicked the monitor on and the task bar across the bottom is background white instead of whatever it used to be (I think blue, but can't be sure). I don't want it to be white, dang it!!! I want it to go back to what it used to be. I've powered down the computer but it comes back on with a white task bar. I have Windows 10. Before, with past windows applications, I used to know how to change the appearance of the desktop, but with Windows 10 it's a whole new ball game. . . well, that and since I haven't changed appearances in a long time, I've probably forgotten how. I doubt I'll get this out of my system for a while because every time I turn on the monitor I'm going to wish the task bar isn't that color. I've asked my friend Google for help, but he's no help at all. Sheesh!
If you go to settings and click on personalization then choose colours you can change the colours on your desktop and there is an option to have the task bar the same colour. Alternatively right click on your task bar and then click settings and that will take you give you options for your task bar and you can click on colours in the left hand menu and have the same choice. Good luck!!

Have you changed your desktop picture? It automatically picks a colour from there by default.

Try Settings > Personalisation > Colors

Then toggle Off ... Automatically pick an accent color from my background to see if that fixes it.

That's a much simpler way of putting than I just did!!

Why have I heard of Daytona?

Quick Google... speedway track. I have no interest in speedway and neither dies anyone I know, but somehow it’s lodged in my mind [emoji849]

Good morning all.
The weather is slightly better here today but still showery.
I'm off to lunch later with quite a few of the family - no special reason - just a get together.
Alfie will be coming with us as they we are going to a dog friendly pub which even has a doggie menu - although he will be sticking to his usual feeding routine.
Lola will be staying here which I'm sure he will be very happy about!!
Meanwhile Alfie and I are off out for a little walk while there is a dry spell
See you later - have a good day!

Happy Sunday all. Hazy, hot (mid-90’s) and humid today, and forecast the same all week. Just toooo darn hot and sticky for outdoor activities.

I think even Sully is tired of this heat/humidity

I am glad I didn't know about the Expo. It would be hard for me not to come back with a sully. :)

Mark are you sure you don't live in Florida? Actually we have had a mild August so far.
