Some pics of the girls

[yoshimi]

Some time between last night and this afternoon, Ukulele passed away. I was hoping she was maybe hibernating, above ground but under log hide. Banjo was right next to her, but she is fine. Banjo was the last one to eat a worm and I should have known then.
I don't know how old she is/was, but old enough to have been gravid. Was a chubby little thing. Not that little really. The guy I adopted he from had had her for 4-5yrs, and found her in NH woods. Always ate like a champ.
When I held her, I thought, hey she's breathing, but it was just my hand shaking. Opened her mouth, nothing stuck in there, tho her tongue was white.
Changed Banjo's dirt, and Uki is in a box with dirt, hoping she'll wake up but her eyes are closed... Waiting for a thaw on Fri to bury her. Post-mortum pics coming, I apologize in advance...
