I took some pictures for their sake so they know what they are getting into. he turned 3 years old in May of 2017, he is 14 pounds and he wouldn't let me...

    Can someone please take Odin? -Sulcata, 3 years old

    Thank you all for the kind words, but our family was just dealt another blow. One of my middle son's best friends died in a car accident the other day. He was the kindest soul and had been a huge source of comfort to our family in recent weeks. I will be following up with messages and posts...

    Can someone please take Odin? -Sulcata, 3 years old

    We received a card from my husbands uncle that really hit me, It was titled "The Oak Tree" The front says: A mighty wind blew night and day It stole the oak trees leaves away Then snapped it's boughs and pulled it's bark Until the oak was tired and stark But still the oak tree held it's ground...

    Can someone please take Odin? -Sulcata, 3 years old

    Thank you. I don't have an answer for that. Both I and my son would love to be able to see him again, but his plans are very much in flux (20 years old, hasn't finished school, crappy job, getting married, had no business getting a sully in the first place) and, to be blunt, I am a damn basket...

    Can someone please take Odin? -Sulcata, 3 years old

    I can't believe I am writing this, but I just can't do it right now. On the 28th of July of this year, I lost my middle son, the Marine, and my youngest (Odin's dad) is getting married in February. The original plan was for me to keep him until my youngest and his future wife got settled...

    And after a nice long drink on a hot day Master Odin likes to lounge in the pool.

    Agave Identification

    A couple of years ago I bought and started a pack of mixed, unidentified agave seeds. To my surprise, they sprouted! Back here: Gma's indoor winter gardening (and Sulcata brag) thread To my even greater surprise they are now adorable little plants but hopefully big enough to start...

    Odin (sulcata) thinks spring is delicious!

    That is fantastic! The juice bar is great! The roses are already starting to bloom with tasty little rosehips at their bases, there are unripe cherries on the tree, the golden raspberries are stretching their legs and sprouting outside the garden, both mulberries died to the ground but came...

    Odin (sulcata) thinks spring is delicious!

    In his spare (non-eating time) he is working hard to remodel his burrow, apparently that dirt goes over there. I guess we will never learn. :rolleyes: In other news, the larger he gets the more social he gets! He is letting us regularly rub his head and touch his legs, which was next to...

    Odin (sulcata) thinks spring is delicious!

    The other day we were out again and had to dig the entrance to his burrow a bit deeper. You can see by his face that he does not appreciate humans burrowing abilities.

    It was short lived. When we brought him in he was plenty grumpy! :rolleyes:

    Odin (sulcata) thinks spring is delicious!

    I started over this past winter, I wanted to get ahead of it so he didn't decide my hands looked a little too tasty! :eek: I dried a bunch of leaves and clippings from his summer garden and mixed them with hay and 2-4 times a week I would soak some with Mazuri and throw it over his fresh...

    Odin (sulcata) thinks spring is delicious!

    It's still early here in MN, (getting into the mid 60's when we are lucky) so there is nothing but grass and weeds, and Odin is completely okay with that! Soon we will be gardening and there will be so much more deliciousness for his. He has also put on a few pounds over the winter, literally...
