Little Unnamed One will get big even HUGE, hehe, we hope but what we are going to do with SEVEN of these herbivores running around a cactus garden, I'll never know. She should more than triple her weight in one season.
We have to keep a weedy patch just to feed them all I suppose, and we've given up exotic grasses in a drainage dry stream arrangement. They love to eat elm leaves, roses, devil grass, dandelions, ( finally I spelled it right! I always misspell that word.) Also they like Opuntia cactus paddles, cactus fruits, epies and bromiliads, dried weeds.
I'm really excited about these babies but I don't want anymore of them! You can't give them away there have been so many born in captivity. Odd for an endangered species, isn't it? There is a very bad introduced disease out there in the wild, and captive ones can't be released into the wild lands, here or in Florida.
The little sweetie is getting to be HUGE!!!! What a cutie.
ReplyDeleteshe certainly is giving it the eye

Rho, she sure is. She likes it better than the quarters, we can tell. More her color.
