    Summer Visitor

    My alarm went off this morning and I got up. It's dark in the basement but I immediately noticed movement on the bedroom floor. I dove and grabbed the radix as it headed under the dresser. I knew it wasn't a resident since my are all accounted for. I put my glasses on and found it to be a new visitor to the Ranch. After a check-up, bath and some breakfast she was on her way out the back door.
    I wonder if that's what she was hoping for when she came into the house. Maybe these radixes have a plan to this behavior. You don't think they're purposely taking advantage of my pro-radix ways, do you?

    A lovely visitor that's for sure I'm sure it was your skills that called her out of the wild into your home!

    I'm sure the smell of 4500 pinkies and a couple hundred night crawlers didn't have anything to do with it. The feed dishes and watering station around the outside of the house couldn't have been part of it.

    Maybe the word is getting out among your local population. Have you noticed any teensy little signs near the basement doors or foundation that say anything like "free food and bath, enter here"??

    I don't think there's any signs you can see but I bet there's a pheromone trail that lights up the ground.
    I'm such a lucky man. I hope many of them find their way(home) to my house this fall. All are welcome.

    When I look at those little faces, I melt. I'd never be able to charge them

    I hope they give me a good rating with the BBB.

    There kind of like little Hobo radixes that stop by for a handout. My mother told me to never turn anyone away hungry, I'm sure she meant radixes.
