I buy them online, Aquahuna.com
They're currently sold out, but the Kuhlis are $3 each, minimum of 6 loaches, plus shipping. They guarantee live arrival, and I've not had any problems yet.
Harvested some carrots today.
I'm planning on cooking a roast tomorrow in my Crock Pot. I usually put carrots in the bottom before adding meat. I ran out of store bought carrots...then thought "Dummy! Check the garden."

From 2024: Kuhli loaches, Red Cherry shrimp, Ember tetras, and my last Glowlight tetra on the right.
The loaches are small as they were some recent additions to my older (7-8 years) loach population.
I pulled up a couple cabbage plants that were a tad wilted from the freezing cold.
They were appreciated!
The second flock also got cabbage, but I didn't take a picture.
I tried shooting different handguns when I took a class. The 9mm recoil hurt my arthritic thumb joint, but the 380s didn't. The easiest slides were the Sig Sauer and the Walther.
And I have read about mice nesting in coop insulation, ew.
@Three Stents if you insulate the coop it can raise the humidity, and when that's high your chickens are more prone to frostbite, too.
