Found my lost one in greenhouse.
My last small ibera was found this morning. I was giving the greenhouse a dig over, and checked under a large thick piece of slate, and their she was. So got her up, put her near some heat so she could choose what she wanted to do. She went straight to the heat, an hour later I bathed her, and gave her some food which she nibbled at.
So once she has warmed for the rest of the day, and early tomorrow morning, she will be out with the others in the GH.

Well I knew she went down in the GH, but I dug around a few times trying to find her, with no luck. I dont know why I didnt look under the slate before, as its a sensible place to go.

So glad your all back together. Sandy, in your greenhouse do you have escape proof foundations, just curious, may get one myself later.

I do have foundations for the bricks the greenhouse stands on. This helps stop rats etc getting in.
I know they cant get out, but I had tried several times to find Peanut, but couldnt. Just goes to show they have common sence sometimes, as thick slate is a good frost/freezing insulator.
