The hermit crabs

We have two crabs the land hermit crabs that is and they are weird little creatures for sure
This one scaled up the plastic tree trunk and was hanging by the leaf and would not let it go. I have decided they have no sense at all.

We got him off the tree. So he scaled the side of the cage and latched on with his claw. I decided to leave him there. For more info on these weird little things go here http://www.hermit-crabs.com/

Rainbow Bridge where he plays now......

Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together.... Author unknown...

The found frog

They kids found a frog so I let them play with it. We did not raise this one. Sadly our tadpoles died and went to Heaven. They had a lot of fun and we took him to the river to go and find a new froggy family.
