Got another big chunk of weed madness taken care of...
SP is acting goofy for sure. If you remember, I said she had buried her first clutch of 10 eggs down in the shavings.. covered them right up she did.. Then she was making two clutches out of her 7 eggs. I put a basket of shavings and fresh smelling hay in the barrel and put all the eggs in it.. hoping she would like the 'nest'. Well, she took 3 eggs out of the basket and left them in the barrel. Hasn't laid another egg so I thought she was upset that I put Mollie in with her and Henri.. but they are doing just fine together.. Well, I robbed the eggs this morning when I was cleaning the barrel and putting in new shavings and hay, and boy did SP have a fit.. she dumped over the basket looking for her eggs.. was looking high and low in and around the barrel for her eggs. I felt bad for her, so I stuck them back in the barrel sans basket. Lo and behold, she's in sitting on her prizes. She's not acting bishy or growly.. but hooo boy was she upset her eggs disappeared. Maybe this time she'll sit them until they hatch.
