Ipyana-
A wonderful thing has happened! Ipyana is growing in his wing feathers and they haven't broken off!
Yay! We have been very careful about this! But not all of the feathers have grown in. Im guessing that they are at different stages of growth. This will be the first time in his life that feathers have grown in in the wings and havent been plucked out of broken off. He likes to chew the shafts so much that it busts them and then they die and fall out. So this is a heaven sent blessing!
June-
June is being nicer and nicer to me all the time. Although he gets really frustrated with Ipyana. When Ipyana screams, June seems to take out his frustration out on his toys. Either that or he is trying to impress or intimitidate Ipyana with his screaming and attacking (his toy) abilities. It just makes Ipyana scream even more and its like a big cycle.
Hermit Crabs-
The Hermits have been in hiding for quite some time now, since my last blog entry. Every once in a while I will dig them up for a brief moment to make sure that they are still alive. They are alive and well. I never see them anymore. Well, every once in a blue moon Speedy will come out. And Speedy has gotten huge! His pincher is probably umm... double the size of when I got him! Its about the size of a nickel now! When he opens his giant pincher, the space inbetween is about an inch! He is a very timid Hermit but he still has those natural wild instincts and I dont want to mess with that! lol. They refuse to come out during the day (except Speedy), but I know they are up and about during the night while I am sleeping because when I wake up in the morning, their food is one big mess! I wonder when Speedy is going to switch shells? He is getting too big for his shell. I guess he just isnt satisfied with the shells that I have provided. Even Hermit Crabs can be picky! Peek has two favorite shells and switches between them frequently. I dont know what he is going to do when he goes to switch shells and another crab has taken up the favorite shell that Peek isnt in. It wouldnt surprise me if he scared the occupier out. With his personality, it really wouldnt surprise me! lol. I imagine that he would get on top of the shell, shake it vigourisly until the frightened occupier runs out franticly in the nude! Speedy then would get in the shell that he sees fit. They do do that ya know. If they are desperate enough.
