Big Breakfast

[SSimsswiSS]

Tongues where in action this morning before dawn today. I think the parsons are stocking up on the fat reserves as winter gets closer.

It's really nice having small mulberry trees inside the enclosures to free range silkworms. Gives them chance to look for, and hunt during the day. And the silkworm eat and grow bigger on the tree if not discovered right away.

Mantis, or chameleon? I raise my own mantis to feed. This mantis was near end of her life span, so nothing wasted.

13 are kept outside in seperate sections. It's more of a giant screened cage than greenhouse. I do wrap it in plastic to keep temps up at night, during the coldest months though. Usually Nov. - March
