I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy. Although I am recovering quicker than with the last bug we had two weeks ago. I felt worse with the last bug as well, but dealing with vomiting and diarrhea makes it worse.

That is awesome!!

I have roaches, Dubia Roaches. I thought about raising them for the chickens last year. My son got a bearded dragon and I am about going broke while my colony gets going. We did all kinds of research before getting Sam (Samantha), the bearded dragon. Somehow we missed they eat insects exclusively the first 6 months. I have been told not to get insects out of the yard due to them carrying parasites and exposure to lawn chemicals that could make Sam sick. Lordy, lordy.

How old is your dragon? It should be eating more than just insects.

They have not given us any additional information about the shooter. It makes me think that he knew them and is likely in custody.
At least that is what I am telling myself. :hmm


I got quite a bit done in the garden! I moved a 4x8 garden bed and got it leveled. That was quite a chore! The ground I had to dig out was like concrete.
I amended 2 beds, set metal posts, moved a cattle panel to be a big arch for growing vertical and topped off a 3x4 bed then set trellis into that one. Then I set to planting a few things. I got roughly 35' of peas planted, 3 pots of carrots (after screening that dirt), lettuce and spinach until I ran out of spinach seed.....
I still have 2 sections of the raised beds roughly 40 square feet unplanted.

Now to make supper preparations. :th
 
Oh man dosen't help they eat a crazy amount either does it? :)

@21hens-incharge I am tired just reading all that you did.

Sam, the bearded dragon, is 3-4 months old. At six months, his diet should be mostly “salads.” She has been a learning experience also.
At 15-16 cents per dubia or cricket, plus tax, adds up quickly!!! But, we love her. She is so awesome! I never knew I could love a chicken and never knew I could live a lizard.

Off to make an apple pie for my son’s class. He was so sweet to volunteer me! And said he really wanted homemade instead of frozen. Might as well make one to stay at the house. 2 apple pies coming up.

Don’t say too much while I am in the kitchen for the next hour cutting and peeling apples.

That is the same age our beardie TC was when we got her :love They are such fun creatures. DH and I are totally in love with ours too.

A beardie that age should already be eating salads (approximately 30-50% of their diet) in addition to bugs. Collards, mustard greens and turnip tops are particularly good options, although they can eat most vegetables. Berries are TCs favorites non-green.

And now I must put down the iPad because TC just pooped in my lap while I was writing this. :sick Message me if you ever want to nerd out about our beloved reptiles.


Edited for typos made during the poop-pocalypse.
