    Default Firecracker 4th of July

    The BJS symphony was enjoyable, the fireworks were nice, but been there done that. The grass fire caused by the fireworks that closed the north bound traffic sucked. Supertramp, take the long way home. But then came home to this.







    More fireworks in the basement than outside. First go on Barb's swirled cones that got to go to NADA when I didn't.

    Yes Rick, it's a very confirmed pair. He'd been pulled from the previous fry because they had eaten a thin strip at the base of his tail raw on both sides a couple weeks ago. So she hadn't laid in at least 2 1/2 - 3 weeks. A bit pent up.

    WOW! What a lot of eggs! Maybe because that cone was on my vendor table at NADA and has lots of "good vibes" from all the activity in that room for 5 days? Why is it out of water though? WC? Good luck with them!

    Well apparently the male was watching the fireworks and not participating in any, all the eggs are white. And now he and the female are battling, and she's getting the worst of it. Thinking of tossing in some eggcrate and giving her a break.

    That sucks Keith about the eggs. Egg crate is a good idea ATM.

    Egg crate is in place, though she doesn't look any too happy about being separated from the eggs. I'm guessing she'll try to push through, might even succeed.

    Put the eggs on her side of the crate. Any reason to keep the eggs Keith?
