Prairie Dog Update April 2, 2008

Just a quick upadate… I have counted three of the prairie dogs now.  I think that is all there are at this time.  They come out everday and forage for  grasses… or anything I might have left out for them.  So far they like orange pulp, vegetable pulp (from my juicer), celery centers, lettuce, carrots and spinich.   I’ll set out a wedge of tomato, and some cucumber for them too, and see if they like that.  But I am aware that they are best to stick with grasses.  I wouldn’t want them to become dependent upon me… I want them to continue foraging.  I will allow a patch of wild grass to grow, where I had been pulling it up, every month or so.  What I set out for them, only comes every few days.  More photos soon.
