Willow's Babies!!!!

[kibakiba]

Yay! Go Fish bait!

Now we have to mark him/her again so we don't mix it up with another similar looking one.

[kibakiba]

How do you mark them?

[katach]

With a non-toxic marker. Just a dot on the neck.

[kibakiba]

Ahh, nice. I wish I had thought of that. I wouldn't have have gotten Spots and Specks mixed up.

[katach]

Was Bill's idea. It works very well. We don't usually have trouble telling Fish Bait from the rest because it's usually in the water dish chillin, but when it's under the hide with the rest of the group it can be a challenge.

[kibakiba]

I can imagine!

[katach]

Now we just look for the blue dot!

[katach]

Finally the temps have dropped and we are seeing slugs. I found a good one today at my mom's house eating her roses. I hope scenting will work for the non-eaters. I will keep you all posted. I'm so surprised they have lasted so long without food. They are still active, exploring, flicking, and drinking. Willow must have some super yolk!

Or they're going to do what Steves did and just refuse food until they starve to death.

They should eat within 4 weeks of birth. Every day after that, there is less hope that they will ever eat. Might want to consider releasing them.
