Default In There Somewhere.

When I got home from work yesterday I took a look at Jerry's enclosure and decided it probably needed a bit of thinning out!! Can't believe how well the plants have become established.



He was in there somewhere....

That one is Mallow, grown from seeds I purchased on ebay. He loves to eat it but if does need controlling now and again. It had leaves throughout winter, which was a bonus.
He also has campanula, plantain, dead nettle, bristly ox tongue and forget-me-not in there as edibles and carex, rosemary and hebe for shelter.

No problem. ..To be honest he's almost getting old enough to tell the sex and
Is looking more like a Geri than a Jerry.

Yes, I will be moving to flickr. Shocking, what they have done without any forewarning. Holding their users to ransom.
