| With the evenings drawing in great to see the return of Spike. In all probability its unlikely he’s ever been away. Certainly hasn’t forgotten the taste of mealworms. After demolishing a bagful in less than a week we splashed out on a 2kg bag via Amazon and Maltby’s Mealworms. 2kg is a lot of mealworms, think about 3 large breakfast cereal boxes full. Really is a serious amount of mealworms. Hope he’s got a few hungry relatives living nearby. |

| Since first appearing last Autumn Spike appears to have found a few unwelcome hangers on. Note the Hedgehog ticks above his eye. Supposedly just a few is relatively harmless as they’ll drop off when fully fed. Hopefully they’ll die when the weather turns colder and Spike decides to hibernate. |
