Today has been a good day. Nim pooped, he peeled all of his shed off but his tail and he is growing. He will also be moving to the 20 gallon this Friday. Yay!
And I'm thinking of giving him 14 canned crickets a day instead of the 12. 12 doesn't seem to satisfy him now. He always glass dances after eating. He didn't a week or two ago. He sure has plumped up though, which is good because the canned crickets are running low again. Oops.
We'll buy two cans this Friday. If we can afford it. Because this Friday we have to buy the concert tickets. Because the next Friday is the concert itself. We can afford him to move to the 20 gallon. All he needs that will cost is, a new
UVB light fixture, a higher watt basking light (which is going to be a regular house bulb), and paper towels as the substrate. I will probably need to get more logs and rocks. Those very plentiful in my yard though.
He will also be tried with new types of greens. The dandelion greens will be dead soon. And I want to see what else he can eat before the dandelion greens die. So I am very happy today. No nightmares about Nim tonight.
One thing I am not happy about though. I forgot to remember that the tiels need seed. So they have been out for a few days now.
I'm so stupid. They aren't going fully hungry though, we have human foods that they will eat. Like bread and other food. Our bread is whole wheat bread BTW. And they always handle it fine.
