Day 3...

After the extremely wild weather Snowpea is down to four babies. We found one little cold wet body in the grass this morning and two are still missing. We have decided that if the weather doesn't improve we will have to put them in a smaller cage at night. They are just too tiny to withstand the freezing cold and the wind, despite Snowpea's bests efforts to keep them all together. We are grieving today - but, in much better news - Spock is sitting on eight eggs!!! Photos to follow...
