Re: Dwarf maoli, sweetheart, goldfinger, dwarf brazil, blue java

Too late, I already removed it. Theres too many animals around to leave it, if my chickens dont go for it, coyotes or rabbits, squirrels, crows, mice, rats or something else would.

Re: Dwarf maoli, sweetheart, goldfinger, dwarf brazil, blue java

I'm pretty sure these are what they are supposed to be. I think they all came from Larry and still had tags on them from agristarts. The brazil one may have been from an online nursery.
