    Prickly: YES
    Chestnut: Good.

    Listen, I'd rather watch porcupines munching peanuts for 10 minutes instead of watching humans slob around at a buffet. At least these guys are adorable.

    Spike's eating appreciation is so loud and clear I kept expecting her to actually sing "My favourite PEANUTS!" The others mumble happily over their food, even Squeak, but Spike is deafening - just in case the supply ever dried up, perhaps. Chestnut is a food thief (always one) and Prickly is sweet, but the happy munching by them all is incredibly sweet. Thank you so much.

    They’re just so adorable when they’re tripodding! 8:18 .
    When hunched over a peanut pile, it’s hard to see much, but up on hind legs, holding their treasures (yay, sweet potatoes!) it’s so nice to be able to see those precious wee sweet little faces!

There were many, many groundhogs on my grandparents' Midwest farm and they raised me my first 9 years--my grandparents, not the groundhogs--but there were huge. No doubt because they lived in deep, stony holes in the cornfields. Feed corn, so it was made for them. There were other things like flowers, berries, rosehips, etc to munch on as well. I was shocked when I saw your slim, charming groundhogs. Harley was a real sweetheart. ♥✨

I would pull back nub, not a hand, if I did, but I’d have to do it. I can’t believe she has a quill stuck in her belly 😢Poor lil lady. I love Spike’s happy eating noises so much ❤ She’s just the happiest girl period. Well, except for when the tiny terror is after her. Speaking of terrors, have you seen Miss Quilbert lately? I miss that lil sass monster. She’s a riot.

    • @Forest_Friend
      @Forest_Friend 3 дня назад +2

      It's been a while since we've seen Quilbert, but last year she took a 3 month winter vacation. Quilbert seems to like to remind us that she doesn't need the treats, even though she does enjoy them. She visited a ton just before and after having her baby (with a two week gap in between), so I'm hopeful we'll still see her plenty every summer. She might have chosen a home farther away than most of the others and doesn't find the walk worthwhile enough when it's cold and through the snow, especially since she's small for an adult porcupine.

    • @suzannahjohnson6879
      @suzannahjohnson6879 3 дня назад +3

      @ It wouldn’t surprise me AT ALL to find out that Quilbert lives far, far away, because she’s never been a fan of being around other porcupines (the video of her chewing poor little Sticker/Prickly up one side and down the other will never fail to crack me up, no matter how many times I watch it). The clan has gotten so much bigger since Quilbert first started coming around! She will always be the OG, but yeah……Ms. Q has grumpy little hermit written all over her 😂. I swear she and Squeak are related somehow. The attitude, the swagger, the tiny little bodies with huge personalities, the ferocity…Squeak does not get that from her mama. Spike is a doll. She’s more golden retriever puppy than porcupine.

      @@kekatmykat3311 We haven't seen Harley since the Spring of 2023. He had a great life and we think he was about 11 (and a groundhog's average lifespan is something like 3 years). Clover the groundhog moved in later that summer, and has very similar markings, so I expect she was closely related to him. This spring, Bramble the groundhog moved in too, and while Clover and Bramble did squabble a bit, they seemed to be getting along ok when hibernation time got close, so we're hoping to see both come back in the spring.

      To add on to the noises, Chestnut does a pretty good impression of an old timey mob boss "Myeh!" when Chonkers isn't taking a hint that his advances aren't wanted. Spike and Squeak call out to each other when they're looking for each other, sort of a "Moop moop!" And if Squeak is angered, she can do a very loud "MEEP!" When two of them are bickering over peanuts, they sound almost exactly like Minecraft villagers.
