So happy to say they are still doing so well :O) They are loving scratching about to find their food inside their cage. I can't wait till it warms up enough to take them outside again. They get so noisy when they want food.lol I'm worried I may be under feeding them but I'm not sure how much they should eat and over feeding will result in death. Such a hard thing to figure out. Still no heater and it doesn't seem to bother them in the least which is great. We are going out of town in two weeks and I hope they are big enough to be outside or small enough they will be okay inside.lol My biggest worry is water but I think I will have a friend come over and check on them. It will only be 3 days and of course they will have fresh food and water the morning we leave. I just worry about leaving food for them. Well two more weeks to worry about that for today they are great and thriving ;O)
Most hard candies call for corn syrup, but since I was out and I have 3 children home I decided to experiment and make something fun! Here is what you need: 2 Cups of Sugar 2 Cups of Water 1 Package Sugar Free Jello A candy Thermometer Making candy is a pretty tricky process and trust me I messed up a batch or two getting this to work right.lol Put the sugar and water into the pot and turn on medium whisking well till the sugar is dissolved. Stirring pretty regularly to help the sugar from burning. As the sugar begin to boil turn the heat up to high. Watch your thermometer when the candy reaches 230 pour in the jello continuing to mix. Pour this mixture immediately into a cake pan that is lined with parchment paper of you can rub a little veggie oil in it. The candy will continue to cook as it melts anything over 230 you will be left with a burnt candy that tastes like licorice.lol After you candy is cooled completely turn it out onto a cookie sheet and break apart :O) I li
