Time to wake up

Suze65 · 20-01-2016, 02:36 PM

I'm getting my babies up this weekend, I can't wait, I looked at them today and they're fine. So today I have been getting the table ready. It's up and running now, just waiting for a new uv strip bulb, and for all the pebbles and slate to warm up as it's been in the shed. I am very excited to get them up from their first hibernation, I might introduce them to pickle, once they are fully up and running. I will post pics soon. 😊

You must be so excited to see them again, Suze!! Good luck and I hope they wake up well and are soon stomping around their table.

oooh how exciting Suze. I bought a little fish and introduced him to my huge fat shark like mad rescue gold fish (who wouldn't harm a fly but is mad) poor newcomer hid.
AND introduced a little tortoise to elle, who then went on to try and eat all the food up very fast which isn't at all like her, but so far so good. so good luck with pickle. hope he is for keeps now ! CB

Look forward to hearing how it goes. Such a fun time - after the worrying!

I will be glad to get them up, although they did look quite snug today. I'm still not sure if Pickle will go back or if I will keep her, but she's staying here for now!

I must admit I'm missing my lot but it's nice to have lots that don't hibernate.

My babies are all up and very lively, all but one have had something to eat, but the one has tried to eat so I'm not worried. Very little weight loss, two haven't lost anything , Phoebe ( Herman ) lost a gram, poppy is the only one that seems to have lost a bit more, but she's very lively so I'm not worried. So not a bad first hibernation. I very glad to have them up and about.
