chuckfullservice Posted March 13, 2007 Author Share Posted March 13, 2007 Lost one about a half hour ago ! The other one is hanging on ! Do you think a fresh water dip will help??? Please anyone! Also my girlfriend admitted that the were out and looking good around 6pm . She started to vacuum and she said the were imediately spooked by the vacuum cleanner and darted into the rocks. I think maybe the startling stressed them or they may have hit the rocks while fleeing! I hope this guy makes it ! Link to comment
