  1. There's a few on the plant but this ones plenty bigger than a footy now so should be decent sized by halloween.
  2. Out of interest why would border be used to outcross? I'm not knocking borders in any way just can't see why you'd cross one with a beddy. If you were wanting to bring the size down and put a bit of work back into them then a little curly coated fell type would do the job better?
  3. I had this done in pastels by someone who was a member on the forums mum and she caught him to a T. You see some shocking portrait artists advertising on facebook etc.
  4. These things haven't been picked since thursday. That's a size 10 trainer next to them ?
  5. Is it P. Metallica with the bright purple underside? I wouldn't mind one of them. I never fancied an OBT as the name doesn't make them very appealing.
  6. I only ever had a juvenile smithi but it was a hair flicking tw@, the worst I had was a curly hair. I often think about getting some more spiders but the ladies of the house would not be happy. My favourite was my Psalmopeus irminia.
  7. How's your pond doing jeppi?
  8. Non native wild animals are still wild regardless of where they are not feral. Would a true feral dog that had been bred for generations in the wild be tameable like feral cats can from a young age or would they still be wild? I've seen on here about an island which has a healthy population of feral ferrets that have been there a very long time so I wonder if they still carry the domesticated traits like being tractable or are they mad like proper poleys? If they were able to be tamed it would be a good way of getting back some old working strains.
  9. I used to keep tarantula too, my first ever one (Chile rose) bit me and I never got bit by the quicker more aggressive species I kept. I nearly shit my kecks though when a cobalt blue tried to run up my arm.
  10. Nice big male, there must be a bigger female knocking around somewhere that he's been looking for.
  11. It needs washing more than a few times ? Its probably glow in the dark round here too .
  12. That samphire must be an acquired taste or it's like marmite coz it's just not nice to me. I've tried it normal and pickled.
  13. These scruffy little feckers are a close second too.
  14. Pinched the pic off Google as I've never owned one but always liked them.
  15. Done a couple of days a few times when I was younger, I used to get tonsillitis regular and it was easier to just not eat than suffer the pain.
  16. Some of these first crosses that are big heavy lumps are they bred from big heavy bulls or is it something that happens when crossed to the grey they throw heavy? The proper bulls I've seen aren't heavy built. The nob extension types the chavshave are heavy but is that from am bull influence?
  17. 8 months is old enough imo but if there's a lot of rats and he's getting bit a lot I'd watch he doesn't take too much stick.
  18. I had one with all 3 in and he was bombproof, the collie on the other hand was a 5 year nightmare. He won't be trying to bite anyone again though.
  19. There's foibles and there's being an unpredictable scatty b*****d.
  20. I've only had one beardie cross and it is my last too. Some people seem to get lucky and have a great one and other people end up with a complete weird dog. Mine was weird and a liability.
  21. Did he work to ground too? I like a nice obedient terrier, my borders not disobedient just never really listening if you know what I mean.
