Eye-ball lick

Here is an awesome drawing by one of my Year 6s, of Biscuit licking her eye. Crested Geckos have a fixed, clear eye-lid, so they can only clean them with their tongue...it sound yucky, but it's really cool to watch.

New girls on the block.

 Meet Blossom, Bubble and Buttercup...* 
​They are African Spiney Mice and are very hard to get hold of. I have been on the look out for years! They are absolutely hilarious and are enjoying being very nosey on top of Rango's massive cage in the hallway. This gives them a chance to see all the action in the house, and is super warm as half the cage is on Rango's heat lamp bit. They are very fast and jumpy but very friendly and will take a food pellet from your hand. They are a scientific marvel as they can regenerate missing or damaged skin to a much higher level than other mammals. I have found it hard to find care sheets for them, there are plenty of science papers about them though! I have discovered they like to hoard and bury food. Maybe they do that in the wild when food is scarce to eat later? I could watch them for hours, they are fascinating. Of course Rango sulks if I watch them instead of him...
*The PowerPuff Girls! (it's not on tv anymore but google it,it's awesome!)

Amazing drawings!

I was very lucky to teach the very youngest children in the school and brought in Poppy the Giant Spiney for them to meet. They were so sweet with her and drew some brilliant pictures. Notice the correct number of legs and special 'digging/egg laying tool' drawn accurately.

What's that white stuff?

I just found this gorgeous picture of Rango staring in amazement at the heavy snow last year...
