Hahaha ! It is funny.

Oh, thank you! Standing in here has been difficult for my arthritic feet, and with no light at all...well, you can imagine.

I still am concerned that they may attempt to find the Secret Room to air their grievances. Oh! The jellyfish could dry up in the heat of the hallway! And the armadillos would have to wear sunglasses, and the meercats would most assuredly find trouble to get into.
At least the Wolf spider (if she exists) said she's not going anywhere, she's up near the ceiling knitting, and won't leave.

Roomies, we COULD have a disaster in the making! Remember, they are the residents, and we are the visitors. Their feelings are hurt, so we have to come up with little nothings to give them.

I gave the head jelly a small nothing, and she was delighted, and let me give her a poke! [emoji23]

I keep tripping over the large pile of nothings that the meerkats are accumulating in the dark!

Thanks! That one on the top left my wife bought for my last year. It has had its blooms for over 3 months now. It’s easy to neglect them sometimes... with everything elder that had to be done. The Oncidiums need to be watered every three days or they get unhappy. My back was acting up a bit and I wasn’t going downstairs in the basement where we keep them. They were a bit angry. Except for the Phalanopsis. They go a week or so without watering. I use jacks fertilizer and soak them in bucket for 15 minutes

I live in North Florida, so the orchids are currently out on the front porch. Most of them are hanging off of the porch railing (on the outside so they get rained on). Several would benefit from repotting, since it's been five or more years, in some cases.

For my household, if the orchids can survive for a year or two after purchase, they're likely to hang in there for a good long while... And then they need repotting!

Thanks Carol! We are all safe on the Funny Farm

So you have a funny farm ?

"Old Mc Heather had a farm, E i E I O.... and on her farm she had some torts.... E I E I O ..."

Hey rommates. I finally found the reason why we are keeping tortoises / turtles.
Look and find yourself

They do like to be rootbound to bloom!

There is a baby robin under our decking at the moment, the parents are going mad trying to find it. We thought we’d leave it alone just so their is a slim chance they can retrieve the baby and not abandon it. What do you guys think we should do? Letting nature take its course seems to be the safest option at this point.

Good Morning/afternoon all and Happy Mothers Day to everyone around the world except in the UK (we like to be different).
It's a bright and sunny Sunday here, hope you are all lucky with the weather in your parts of the world too!
Have a lovely day.

Enjoy the sun! While it lasts...

Margery’s misadventures part 2!!!!!

Came home Friday afternoon after school and checked on the torts. Selma was up and about, Patty was attacking her cuttlebone, moved onto Marges enclosure.........she was hanging on to a piece of aloe Vera with her mouth!!!!! She was just dangling there, her little legs flapping about. This is a massive aloe and she was on the second highest part.

Now thinking about it, she must of flattened the aloe “leaf” or whatever you call it by standing on it and took a bite, then it flung back up. This is just my theory.

Why can’t I have normal pets. I’ve got a dog with very bad anxiety, a cat who’s constantly high on catnip and there is Marge...... who needs no explaining.

Unless you have a cat on the prowl, it’s almost always best to let a baby bird alone, especially if the parents are looking.

Good luck

Personally I would try to find it. But then I don't have the heart to let nature take its course.
