He burrowed last night. When he rose this morning he looked like this:

Trying out his new outdoor enclosure (it is not finished yet, will be planting it up and adding more hides and rocks etc)

Can't wait for the plants in growing to be big enough to plant in the enclosure.

Spud is doing beautifully. He's grown quite a bit in my absence

That looks great. He is a very lucky tort!!
Have you thought about throwing some seeds in there as well as the plants?

Yeah, I was going to do that but spud would just eat the tiny seedlings. I might throw in a couple to test but I am also growing seed trays

Yes, all is well. I've just been rather busy that's all

The other day

 

[spud's_mum]

Testing the log cave (which is too small, I will be making a better one)


He couldn't turn around so I took him out and he went straight back in and dug out the other side.

So cute! How old is Spud now? He looks so grown up
My Otis has a tendency to burrow too in the most awkward of places...they are rather reckless despite their youth!

Spud turned 1 in January
They are funny little creatures. Spuds favourite place was UNDER his terracotta pot. I used to get scared and think that he was getting squished lol.

I have a digital thermometer that actually is inside Otis' enclosure and she buries under it so it nearly tips over...crazy! Aw, Otis is one on July 1st

Spud loves to do that too!

Out and enjoying the sun

And then he disappeared into his cave

He looks great!

I have to get Goosefoot a bigger log too, she's almost outgrown hers as well...

Yeah, I need to get more hides but I don't like the wood ones as they just go mouldy on the moist substrate. He has terracotta pots and fake leaves to hide under

Hey spudthetortoise, just wanted to ask what kind of substrate you are using there in those digging under the hids pics?
Hes incrdibly cute!
