They are named “Francis” all of them – which makes life easy. Does Francis have enough food? Is Francis warm / cool enough? However, this morning it was “Oh, Francis got out!” They are curious! It is a little uncomfortable handling them, only because they are slippery, and to hold them securely, well . . . you wouldn’t want to overdue it!
What I learned about them is the temperature. Currently there is a thermometer inserted in the farm that is registering at about 110°. I was surprised when a picked a bunch up for show and tell – that they were warm. They do feel a little like overcooked spaghetti – takes a minute to acclimate to that. More reports on Francis as they progress.
