If that isn't love, what is?

Great job Jackie. Now, get back in the house and stay warm, cozy and safe.

Thanks Sandy! It is LOVE
You all know that!! We ALL Love our chids!!

I just ran outside and made sure all my babies are toasty in there, and they are. I put a thermometer in there a couple of weekends ago, and she seems to maintain about 55-60'ish, with all 3 heaters on. Depending on the cold winds from the North of course.

Well, I didn't ONLY keep my chids nice and toasty last night!
I kept the fricken RATS/Mice warm too!

I got home today, go check my babies as normal.
And find 3 onci's destroyed, lying on the ground!
3 Tolumnia's chewed to shreds, on the ground as well!!
And 2 of those Tolumnia's had Spikes on them!
Plus another Tolumnia they just Chewed the Spike off it!!

I am sooooo tired of losing my babies to these nasty monsters!!
I went to Lowe's and stocked up on Rat traps again!!
I got 3 Rats last time this happened, about 3 months ago, I think. And no trouble since, till last night

Sorry to hear about your babies, nothing like get rid of them with the heavy artillary. Keep those traps around for next covering and year your babies will be protected not only by the weather. gl

Thanks Cheryl!! I'm trying to protect them!
They are fruit rats, as there are Fruit trees in every yard around us. And used to be 150+ Orange trees just over the fence my babies are hanging on. Until last yr, ALL were wiped out!! Now ALL those nasty pukes come and visit the rest of our yards looking for something yummy to eat!
I know my Chids are thier FAV desert!!!
