    You guys aren't going to believe this...

    But those corns that shipped out tuesday of last week FINALLY after rerouting arrived at the house today- a week and three days later.
    And im just opening the box, if nothing else i can see how Kathy shipped. AND BAM the blizzard was squirming around in her deli cup- so i pull her out of the way and as i reach for the second, the Creamsicle peeps out from her straw! OH CRAP I was screaming and freaking out and Tony and I both were dashing around for some water, I mean.. just.. after all that...
    Its just..
    insane. They shouldn't have survived memphis, and now look at them.
    We gave them small bits of water, stopped, waited, then little bits more, stopped, waited, and so on until they were full. later on we'll put their water into their 'houses' but she said to let them settle a bit.
    They're not in the clear yet, we have to wait and make sure they didn't become too dehydrated or too over heated. So there is the possibility we could lose one or both.
    But, just seeing them alive for even a few minutes just made me so elaited I cant really put it into words.
    In my gallery is a pic she had of them on her website- i saved and cropped them on my computer and put them on here, I ment to delete them the other day but haven't and I'm glad i didn't.

    Re: You guys aren't going to believe this...

    lol. The Cream is a little chunker, the blizzard is the one im most worried about, she's rail thin but she will knock back some water. By watching them, neither seem lethargic and I'm about to go through the pinkies i got yesterday and decide which will work for them (she said get some little tiney tiney pinkys at first)
