That's awesome that he is felling better this morning...
Remember back to younger days, if you did anything crazy enough to be wearing a lampshade on your head there is always some confusing moments in there.
I have to crate my pups or they end up playing all night and will play on my bed, if I crate them late or accidentally fall asleep early, they are very confused on where to sleep.

Yes I see stress bars...
I will pray for you, your medical team and your family, including furry, feathered, pokey, scaly and slimy that you all get through this rough time.
Taking care of ourselves is often the hardest things to do. But sometimes something will happen to force us to tend to our needs... Says the woman who should be on cardio meds and probably needs to get her gall bladder removed.
Keep us updated on everyone as much as you can. Rest and get yourself healthy.

I'm sitting in bed watching this. The bird cage is maybe 4 feet from the foot of the bed and everyone else is asleep in the house. But I watched it and Skeeter started her rambling, I expected that but then she went on her yelling rant when Pepper did the microwave beep...
Pepper: microwave beep
Skeeter: FEED THE BIRD, FEED THE BIRD, FEED THE BIRD
Mind you she can't say feed the bird nice and quiet, nope we have to yell it as loud as her little green cheek voice will let her.

It was 15-30 minutes after alarm clocks had been turned off, not snoozed, shut off O-F-F off. People need to be moving by 6:30 to get out the door on time. Pepper and Skeeter just saved me some waking up and kicking out of bed duties!!

For me, a flow develops. I get up and get kids out the door to school. Drink coffee and do some morning chores. Do some house chores, more animal chores and more coffee. In the evening it runs very similar. A lot of my stuff is ordered in a way that clears the ability to do the next, or chores are combined. Like everyone gets watered at the same time. I take the rabbit water out when I let one of the dogs out. I pick some tortoise food on the way back in. The birds get fed when I change laundry over. It all has a flow that works.

I say this now, hopefully by fall you all can laugh at me because many more chores will get added because new animals will get added. Chickens, dairy goats, more rabbits, turkeys, a pig or two and I don't know what else... Hopefully they get added gradually. But I vote that my goats come first.

Ok, the one place I thought I seen a gecko like yours doesn't have them listed now. Don't know if that's because of their status and their breeder no longer supplies them. As far as I know, they are only a broker (backwater reptiles) don't judge I hadn't bought anything from them.
It may be worth contacting them to see if they used to carry them and if they could possibly put you in touch with someone.

Time to teach pepper to tattle on rocket.
Over the winter the birds move into the hedgehog and tortoises room. Skeeter would go nuts when someone was in the wrong spot. Now if my Boston terrier finds out that someone is on walkabout he follows them and cries.

Oh cool, I wasn't sure but could see the other lights that weren't on.
I always used one of those promotional flash light key rings, that don't put out a big enough beam to actually do anything a normal person needs a flashlight for. It worked perfect for that because I would have minimal light escaping around the eggs.

Now if you give her a spot to lay the eggs, the real question is, will she use it?

They will hold your tongue still when your body is telling you to move it!

My only pet snake was a ball python. I had others that we caught as kids but they always "ran away" within a few days. As a mom, I now totally understand "escaping" wild animals! But I swear, my ball python would sit and look at his food, have a little conversation about whatever they talk about, try and make friends with his food. If they had it available, I'm sure they would have had a couple beers together. Then he would eat it. I always joked that it was like he was figuring out if the mouse deserved to live or die.
