COLD DARK ROOM

[Bee62]

That explains why when it's too cold for them and not enough heat and light and food they reserve their resources and stop laying, id give them extra food to help them gain some winter weight and give them a heat soure They will soon start to lay again.. . It's the most natural thing for a healthy bird to lay eggs... I give my rabbits and hens lots of extra food to fatten up over winter ( it's what they do in the wild) after all fat is there to keep us all warm... it's not about giving them a break from laying it's a simple case of they are cold and need extra heat and food... give it a go no harm will come of it as it's a bitter winter this year ❤

I know that they need more fatty food in winter to keep them warm, but I would never use an extra heat for chicken. When they are outside it is cold too. My chicken get a lot of extra food in winter too. I hope the winter will not be so cold !

Good afternoon CDR ! Good afternoon friends !
Little update on my old cat: He got the next shots today and is now very exhausted from the VET visit. But he eats and drinks as usual.
Weekend should show if there is more improvement in his health.

Good morning all. Frosty start here in Kent, but the sun is shining and it's a lovely morning.

I'm wrestling with JoesDad's new phone. He is so untechnical that he just hands it to me and I get it going and everything transferred. To be fair, it's the division of labour in this house... I do technical, he does finance. It works fine as long as neither of us meddles with things we don't understand

wifey plus finances = gin.
Good afternoon, Linda.

Good morning, roommates! Very sunny and totally freezing in Roskilde today. Had a coffee morning with some school parents, then walked past the UNESCO World Heritage listed Roskilde Cathedral (it’s between home and daughter’s school). Gorgeous in any weather.

Good morning, Lena.
It was even a bit chilly when i went out this morning to visit SPLAT.
The sweet little thing has not been eating for a few weeks, drinking a lot and will thus be allowed to hibernate this week.He has a burrow under a rock ledge already half excavated and is still digging it, so I guess we'll let him vanish for the winter and hope he comes out safely in a few weeks time.
Sorry, no photos as wifey didn't come with me.

Black Friday discount sale event I guess

Good afternoon, Sara.
Yes, indeed, Amazon are bombarding me with discount offers on loads of items I don't want and they wouldn't post to Morocco anyway.

It is at least looking a bit more hopeful!
Will be thinking good, positive thoughts for your cat over the weekend.
Good afternoon, ccl Bee .

Indeed, you are most magnificent.
So, TORTOISE sender to Noel:
A coffee-coloured, tortoise-shaped plant or a holiday to a place full of living fish would be great.
A long holiday on her own to a lettuce and beet farm in the Icelandic sushi capital in winter would not be good.
Now we know.

He is checking out his 'new' enclosure since the substrate change. Put in some sight barriers or objects of interest to help distract him and beware of flip hazards,, but he should calm down anyway after he's got used to things. But they are a bit slow on the uptake so it may take a few days.
