I've been bitten by Baby Runt twice as I was hand feeding him. Let me tell you, he has a harder bit than my other two giants. How the heck is everyone? I've been away doing stuff and it seems that everytime I do, there are three to five pages to read just to keep up.

Ever had your toe bitten by a tort? Gah, that doesn't feel good! She just went after my big toe >.<


Double post... Odd. I took a video of her fighting the vicious earthworm.. That thing didn't like being bit either!

A really save way to kill off the red ants is to spread corn meal near and on the hill. They eat the meal and feed it to the queen. They can't digest the stuff, so they implode. Problem solved.

Morning everyone. How have you all been?

I'm good! Did a little yard work in the Russian and desert tortoise pens this a.m. The grass is getting really high and I noticed a few fox tail weeds that needed pulling. While I was in there I saw the little male Russian sitting in the same place in the middle of the grass for a long time, while the girls were up against the fence sunning. After a bit I picked him up to check him and he had three or four red ants biting him. One was dug into the skin at the edge of his eye and I couldn't get him to let go. I finally had to pick him off with the tweezers. Stupid little tortoise was just going to sit there and allow the darned ants to sting him to death. I hate those ants! They usually leave the tortoises alone, unless its baby tortoises. Don't know why they went after a grown tortoise. Now I'm going to have to keep going out there and checking on him. Trouble with that pen is its so overgrown you can't see where the ant hill is.

I think you are all the most beautiful people. You have great hearts and that's the most important thing.:D
My day felt like an April fools joke. I was so exhausted today after running around all day but nothing was bad.
It was so cold here in MI today. I had frozen drops on my windshield this morning.
I am trying to eat a small piece of cheesecake and it's so rich I am having a hard time choking it down.

Yeah, it is. As long as you like Dr Seuss and aren't put off by a green promoting (or "dirty hippie" as my dad calls it) movie.

Mike gets bitten a lot but I must move quick because I usually avoid it. Betty was so mad at him the other night she head bobbed and then snapped at him. I don't know why but she doesn't get so mad at me for beating her beak hole but Mikey takes the anger. :(:D

Most people love my cheesecake. Enough to say blasphemous things, like "Jesus may turn water into wine but He ain't got nothing on Kim's cheesecake"

I find it funny and don't think it's the best thing EVER but my family and friends beg to differ. Guess if we have a tort get together it shall become a cheesecake bake-off! :p

I'm not a huge cheesecake lover but it's so yummy. The flavor is fantastic but the consistency throes me off.
I had a bite of real I've cream Saturday and out was weird too.

I love cheesecake too and Rob makes a really good cheesecake with no cracks!! He thinks that the water bath is the secret to a perfect Cheesecake. He made me a Heath bar cheesecake for my birthday and it was very rich but very good!!

I am off to watch the season finale of Walking Dead, thanks for no spoilers Kerryann!!
