Props on the Bluebirds! My dad built and maintained a few boxes when he was alive.

Are you running your grow from solar? That would be awesomely cool to do!
I’d get a second Diablo and 4x4 if I could do that!

Nice! And I like the way you think!

Afraid not using the solar for my grow room but I guess I theoretically could. Funny I just noticed the photo of solar had a tiny little test battery I used Now I have four large 135 lb each batteries.

Instead using the solar to run pond pumps, security system, power receptacles, lights etc for an unattached garage and small backyard wildlife habitat so to speak.

I also had installed an 8 birdhouse bluebird trail at work since we have a hundred acre campus and I knew what to do.

Thanks and I always wanted for years after seeing one at the zoo. Especially when I saw they are some of the most poisonous things on earth and the most poisonous amphibians. Then I found out that once they are taken out of the wild and /or captive bred they lose their toxicity. Something with a very specific diet in the forest nobody knows what but if they don’t eat it they are safe to handle / own.

Glad you added that about them losing their toxicity. Cool. :v: :sunglasses:

It’s pretty wild about them. They think it’s the specific ants that eat specific poisonous plants and by eating them that eat the plants and everything breaks down a certain way voila they are crazy poisonous lol. Wild how the world works, plants and animals :thinking:
