They destroy your landscaping that your wife lovingly cares for. Yvonne, I got in my truck and escorted them up to their place. They went off a spur road, so headed up to the house. I told the husband where they went, and he said, “guess I should close that gate." I was like, REALLY, ya think? Then he looked at how he was dressed(sweats) and started to sigh so pointed out that I was dressed the same but they weren't my cows. Turned, got in my truck and headed home.

Why do people have animals if they don't want to take care of them? Especially in self caused situations... :rolleyes:

So guys, I'm new to the dating game. (I'm 17) but I need to know how to take care of a girl? What size enclosure do they need? What lights? And do they need humidity? Anyone have a care sheet?

I personally prefer a larger (2 room 2 bath) enclosure, with flat energy saving bulbs that light a room VERY well. Most cannot have humidity, as hair frizzes. There isn't an exact care sheet yet, as one mistake will cost you your life. :p:D;)

Jacqui, all I can say is, Girl...you have an eye for spotting the different! You're right. That little baby, besides having no spots in the scutes, has a tiny extra scute on one side!

About 4 weeks ago for some unknown reason, the temp in the incubator spiked and by the time I caught it, it was at about 95F degrees. I was worried that I had cooked all the eggs, but I guess it didn't hurt anything, because they're hatching. One hatched a couple weeks ago, and now 5 are hatching today.

Humidity, if you ever go into a bathroom after a girl has showered you will know the real meaning of humidity. :D If you ever want to get into a bathroom in the morning, either get up before the girl or get two bathrooms. Lights? No candles are better...

Eye for the different huh? Maybe that's why I was attracted to Jeff? :D :D
So your up to six on the way, how many more eggs are there?

Ahhh, but Miss Jacqui, this isn't true.

I suppose it depends on the female you are trying to nab.


For me, it'd take a big sully... or a dog. ;):p:D

I love a flickering flame be it from a candle or a nice fire.

:D :D!!



I just walked over to the neighbor's house and got to enjoy the beautiful red sunset. Then I went to the top of the hill to call my hubby and as I came back down, I got to laugh at four deer that could not make up their minds as to which side of the road to run back to.... just glad I was not going fast.

I colored a binder with sharpies. Inspired by The Lorax by Doctor Seuss.
