Very cute!
Your frustration is easily understood: Don’t feel bad!Good evenooning everyone. Life is keeping me occupied here. I braved the big supermarket yesterday. I had a 15 minute queue to get in. It was all a bit stressful and they didn’t have everything I needed, so I had to brave the our town’s other big supermarket today. The second one was only a ten minute queue and a more pleasant atmosphere inside. I wouldn’t have been able to get everything just visiting that one either though. Hopefully, I can manage just using the local small shops for the next few weeks now though.
I usually do my bulky shopping online and get it delivered. I have done this ever since I had my back operations 16 years ago. It’s impossible to get delivery slots now. I understand why they’re prioritising those who are vulnerable, but I can’t help being a little frustrated that as one of their longest using regular customers I can’t even secure a slot say once a month. That sounds dreadfully selfish, doesn’t it...
My daily walks take me past a little pond and I have been diligently watching a nesting moorhen. The chicks hatched 12 days ago and all 8 are thriving still which I find amazing in a suburban area with cats and foxes.
Mr Mallard was sharing the plank of wood that the chicks like to stand on today. He’s a bit heavier than a chick

That is an adorable picture! I was sitting in the new tortoise yard the other day and one of the wild ducks brought a whole slew of babies out of the woods to feed.. so many I couldn’t count.. they are very wild so I tried not to breath so I could watch them For a while...I didn’t have my phone to get a pic... I try to hide from it more and more often these days..
It’s a natural state of mind here in the dark

Sooooo, probably not of use to the CDR group of over experienced tort keepers.......but, since moderators do visit us....
i saw these pieces pop up on the “internet“ and thought wow, perfect insulation around a hot bulb or CHE for folks building enclosures with plastic tubs. Seems perfect really with a few mods.

So I got crickets in my new closed chamber, I guess from the mulch or a plant. After checking TFO I am so not letting they stay! Thanks to Lockdown 2020 I came up with a trap that I call the Coke Covid Cricket Catcher! I got Cricket Quencher from Amazon for .98 cents?. First night I caught 12 now it’s 1-3 per day and my blue Cochin chicken is living high as a hog now! I added a piece of foil in the opening so they can’t jump back out!
Whats wrong with a few crickets?
That brought up such a cute picture in my mind. Saphire will sometimes go ahead and do rain. I'm always surprised when I check on him and he's just sitting there enjoying a rain shower. It's funny that Pickles came out to greet you though. Maybe s/he's saying phewww right now.
Well...That can happen here. Hello.Glad to meet you.☺ I'll let someone else do the official introduction...
With a tortoise that has no interest in them they are out of control! The chicken loves it!
Yea me too. I've been doing my usual stuff but now I have an added convenient excuse to stay home. Smokey is adorable.☺
You will fit in fine here then!
Hello and welcome to the CDR. I’m Linda and I live in Kent in South East England.
We’re an international bunch of idiots /friends here who sometimes talk tortoise and fairly regularly talk puns and nonsense.
Pull up an armadillo and the one-legged pirate will be along shortly to bring you your beverage of choice. The big armadillo is called Montgomery and is a very obliging coffee table, especially if you dust him or tickle him under the chin.
It’s rather gloomy in here, but the flying jellyfish glow a little brighter when you polish them. The blueberry ones seem to be glowing brightest at the moment.
Watch your step; it’s easy to stub your toe on the hedgehogs in the gloom. The wool spider, if she exists, seems to be in a better mood since we locked the leprechaun in a jellyfish tank. The snow leopard is very friendly and eats carrots
I’m gearing up “production” of Christmasy things. The little birdhouse was a one-off. My cherry piece could have been larger. But, it is what it is.
Good morning guys and gals! Dunkins is calling my name.. whats everyone want? Lol
That sounds like an essential movement.
For sure! Its like trying to drive a car with no gas lol
Its routine these days. Eat some breakfast, feed the animals, get my coffee, down to the dungeon basement for my wrkout and then cry all day with boredom hha
Well...I tried Joe's mum's recipe for scones. I did craisons and pineapple mixed with pecans. It's a mix between a butter cookie and a biscuit.Thanks Linda!!!delicious
Shame on you, eating before you children ;-)
