walshie 2,804 Posted July 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 You mean pick it up? With my hands? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skycat 6,172 Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 It won't bite you! And it's not slimy nasty ugh either. Actually, you better not pick it up with your hands or you might squash it. 'Ask' it nicely to walk on to a bit of leaf or something then place it tenderly in the undergrowth: not on a nettle or anything spiky or stingy. We need to look after all our moths and butterflies in this blighted world. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

walshie 2,804 Posted July 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 My son's just asked, "Is that on sale: can I buy it?" He can have it for free but he has to come and collect it himself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When I told him he got really excited and reminded me that we're going to see Wales vs Japan in November...until I pointed out it would have pupated by then. That was almost as funny as another recent comment by him, "I wish they sold leopard geckos in Poundland!" 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
