3:00 snapshot, #149


Frozen food.

Disgusting substance of the day: mouse torso organs. I chopped up a mouse for the snapper and crammed red bell pepper pieces into it. (In order to trick the turtle into eating veggies.) The pepper and mouse separated in the water. To my surprise, the snapper pursued and ate the red pepper pieces. I fed him a couple more without the mouse pieces and he ate those too.

On this day in 365 Urban Species: Mock strawberry. Alexis just recently added a picture of the plant in flower to the comments on this post.

HAHA the front desk lady at the center is all scared of the few frozen mice we have in the freezer, along with the cockroach corpses (we freeze them to double check they are dead)...I think she would die if she saw this freezer...;)
The snapper doesn't just eat veggies on his own? Our pond turtles love eating lettuce we put in their tank...
But that's good this time he ate the veggies separate...:)
