well, i've had yana for almost a year and she isn't growing, but my worst fears are. i really don't think she's being bullied, i acutally used to think she was the bullier bc i've seen her bite moswen's spur so hard that he pulled into his shell when he was trying to take her food from her.
regardless, yana's started sleeping all day and walks straight from her bath to her bed every day now. and she stays there till morning when i pick her up and put her in her bath again. so, i've decided to give her every tortoise's dream: a home with no roommates. this is what it looks like:
it's not near as big as her old home, but she doesn't have to share it with anyone.
yesterday she just went under those leaves and slept. this morning i gave ger some carrot baby food, but she kept biting the air infront of the carrots and couldn't get to them. it was SO sad! so i did this:
and she ate:
and ate:
and...... ate!!! all by herself!!!!! i haven't seen her use this much energy in a month or more!
so maybe, in the back of my head, i may begin to harvest the smallest amount of hope....
