Aubrey, I totally forgot about you dropping it off until I was totally stressed a few minutes ago and stomped outside while taking out the garbage, and almost stepped on a bag of squishy brown stuff!
I've been turning the beds today, so it's just in time. Thanks! I'm in the market for more, if you don't mind saving again.
Seth, I just bought a huge bale of pine shavings, a lot more than I need. And it was less than $6. If you want to do pine, you can have a bunch when you pick up your babies.
We've had enough excitement for tonight. Last night, Sahara fed Mao Tse Tung for Russ because I'm just not into snakes. Basically, you put him in a separate bin with his mouse, put the top on, and wait until he's done. Today, she looked in the feeding bin and said, "Mom, where's Mao?" She had to call up Russ and tell him that she had lost his snake... which is a baby snake, about half the width of a pinky finger, so he could be anywhere. We found him, though. So lucky we did! He didn't go more than 5 feet from where he had crawled out, but we were looking under furniture, between books on the shelf... so she got to call him again and tell him that we found Mao. Next time we feed him, the feeding bin is getting duct taped!
