Halloween/Thanksgiving Hatch-a-Long 2019

Yeah I know. it’s just kinda been on the back burner with everything going on this summer/early fall, my brother just got married a month and a half ago so that was a big thing getting ready for that, I was in it, and I also was just planning to move them to the pond so didn’t really want to buy a tank only to never use it again but then I only recently learned you can’t move them in the fall so I’m stuck getting a bigger tank anyway but it’s good. Cause originally I thought I could wait a few months till spring. but I don’t think that’s a good strategy. They need it now. So I’ll see what TSC carries sometime this week when I get the chance.

And WAIT. Shit. The bacteria will die without the filter running!?

Idk what to do then cause it’s not working and I can’t fix it or go get another right now

I can try to tomorrow.

Although I washed a lot of the bacteria off in the cleaning anyway.

And thankfully so far they don’t appear to be stunted. They are still growing. I think I just lucked out I guess.

And I think it’s starting to make more sense now. Sort of haha

here’s my stock tank pond.....300 gallon rubbermaid

Huge Black Widow fan here. I like this newest incarnation of Spiderman, though.

I like the actress who plays black widow. I've seen every one of Scarlett Johanssons movies. I like the actor who plays Spiderman now, I just wasn't into themovie I guess. I'm still mourning the loss of Tony Stark They showed a lot of him in the new Spiderman.

I'm jealous! I need quail eggs except I need my quail cages first. I do not purchase animals without proper homes for them. I am very strict with that part.

I already lost one egg from those local farm eggs because it was one of the ones with the sandpaper brittle shell and it got a crack in it so there were tiny air bubbles all in it so I threw it out.

I threw out that egg and added three of mine Shhhhh hubs has counted the eggs yet

and Coturnix quail should be set on November

I don't even know if these well even be fertile eggs but I'm going to give it a try.

Black Widow is great! I also love Hawkeye lol and Quill and Rocket

I’ve never seen her other movies I don’t think but do like her.

And yeah that makes sense. I love all the movies

And SAME!!! I’m gonna miss him so much

And YES!! That’s part of why I like the new Spider-Man so much!! Their relationship is precious.

I love that he’s like a father figure/takes him under his wing.

Even in the interviews and stuff with like the actors and not the characters, their relationship is still precious and amazing

I LOVE it.

So it sucks that he’s not gonna be around anymore.

But maybe he’ll make a comeback.

That said, I don’t think Spider-Man will be around anymore either. Sony is selfish and couldn’t work out a deal with them so I think they took the rights back so he’s not Marvel anymore

But I can’t imagine they’d be that stupid. Marvel and especially the relationship with Tony and how he’s been in Avengers/Marvel movies and stuff is the only reason why he’s so big right now. They’re gonna fail without Marvel lol

But I love Homecoming. It has hilarious.

I peed in my pants.

I hope he never actually does it

And don’t get any ideas and sick him on me on other threads either!

Wait... did I just give you an idea?

They were so happy lol

Don't let it get like the before pics again.

​

I won’t.

They were so happy and I felt bad for letting it get like that ha

That is AWESOME!!!

I never even thought of putting the stock tank in the ground.

That looks amazing! Love that it’s framed with the board and garden and love the filter housing.

I do have a pond shell thing I’m planning on using in spring or was but honestly I think I like this idea better haha and I think yours might be bigger than mine somehow. I think mine will technically be too small but idk.

I was gonna just use a stock tank inside temporarily but I LOVE the idea of making it an actual pond.

That is very smart!! I need to be more like that haha

And aww sorry! But yay for setting more eggs! Lol
