Almost 18 months old and already escaping the bath tub. :tort:

:D It's actually an oil drain pan. $2 can't beat that.

Next size up is either a small pond, plantainer, or a small mortar tub.

Kids just refuse to stop growing.

Picture below is their weekend super mortar tub for bathing purposes and catching some rays. They stay out for an hour or two to bathe and picnic.

Thanks all. I get so many compliments on the colorations. People generally think I keep native Desert Torts. Then they see them after a bath or on the iPhone and "OMG they're pretty!".

Speedy is the only one I can pick out of the little stooges as they're emerging from their slumbers in the mulch. Plus he's the only one that will come to be hand fed like a dog.

Keith- no more for me until I get a ranch. Doing the best that I can for these guys indoors that I can.
