Can you guess which shell is my favorite? LOL The carrier shell! They are so unique. I was very excited to see Ninja at the end of you video. 🐱 Her new collar looks nice on her. Give her some love pats for me. The microshelling was great today! Wow! 4 Wentletraps, awesome!!! I would be in heaven sifting through those piles!

Hey E&K 👋🏻🐚 YESSS you need to go microshelling! I’ve found that the best time for the extra amazing minis is when the tides do not get very high or very low (I think the low tide was 0.7 for this day; quite high) it seems to wash more shells onto the wrack lines, rather than when the tides are more extreme. I’m so pleased with all of the wentletraps, but the little cowries are always stunning finds. I think my favourite day of microshelling was when I was out there with you; I hope to see you out there again 😉 Thanks for watching, and for everything you do 🥰

I’m so pleased that you enjoyed the variety of minis; the sanddollars, bubble shell, and coral really are beautiful 😻 Thanks you for also enjoying the nerites and wentletraps. I honestly love the more uncommon nerites. For the giveaway, I will be doing it on KZread (because it’s for my 1k YT subscribers, of course); but the entrants (and ultimate winner) MUST be able to send me a private message either in FB or email to give me their home address for when I send the box to them. So, they need to also be okay with giving out their address too… and on that note, I should also ask that they be adults, because I don’t want to ask kids or minors for their home addresses, you know? But they can be anywhere in the world, and I’ll send the shells. If they live somewhere other than USA or Australia, I may also ask if they can wait while I check their country’s import laws, just to make sure the shells are actually allowed through customs / boarder security. I think I will be making a video with this information very soon, though! Wow, I’m speechless at 995 subscribers right now 🎉🎉🎉 Thank you Toni, I am feeling really good this week. Yesterday was a great day, and now I’ll be chilling out with my kitty while making the next video.

I would love to get shells from Australia. I live in the USA, Indiana, so the closest water to me is Lake Michigan. No shelling there. With having to take care of my mom 24/7, we don't get to go on vacation anytime soon. Our last vacation was 4 years ago. We are getting ready to celebrate our 21 wedding anniversary and 22 years together. We were going to travel this year, but things changed when we had to bring my mom to our home. So sleep comes in small amounts of time. Watching your shelling videos helps me a lot. I do watch other shelling videos, but your videos are so upbeat, and I feel how much you enjoy shelling.

Ooof, yeah, Lake Michigan would have SEA shells. Any land snails? I’ve thought about trying to find and collect land snails from various rivers and bush areas around here, but I have no idea where to look…and, you know, there’s a lot of very dangerous snakes and spiders in those kinds of places, so I don’t want to tempt fate! Oh wow, that’s a long time since your last vacation, Toni! I can’t even image how rough your life is right now ❤️ I know I say this a lot, but I really hope you’re getting the care/assistance you need for your mom. I’m glad that the upbeat videos are something you enjoy, I’m so pleased to make your day just a bit easier. I’m wishing you luck with the giveaway...

I have thought about doing more giveaways, but the shells I’d want to give away should be good quality and/or glossy ones... and I usually want to keep the best finds because I love these shells too 🤣 I would feel like a miser if I put only very common and/or lower quality shells into a giveaway. And, for the price of postage, it’s not worth it to just put a few shells into a box to post it. I’m pretty pleased with the shells that I chose for the 1000 subscriber giveaway though; a really great selection of big and small ones with lots of colour. It takes me a while to build up a little collection like that, which I’d want to part with, so I don’t know how often I’d be able to do it. Anyhoo, that’s the reason I don’t do more.
