How do I tell if my Mandarin is getting enough to eat?

you can usually find them from someone who has a culture. I bought them from mail order but it is not the right time of the year to ship them by mail now.

If you know someone locally it is best at this time of the year. Otherwise you can have some shipped to you in spring. Sometime it is possible to send them by bus (Expedibus) with an insulated box with a heat pad. It is delicate because if it is too hot they will die as well.

I received my first culture about 2 years ago by mail. I don't know what area you live in, but if you put a message in this forum you have good chances to find someone in your area what have some and can you a culture to start.
