Well, he decided to start burrowing... this is what it looks like now...

I have burmed up the outside of his Bunker, and his pit is below the wall so he sits about halfway under the wall but he is craddled by the rootball of an old Oak the used to sit there. He cant dig any deeper but if he wanted to, he could dig himself out of his Bunker in no time!

It's nice to see that you put a dog tag on him! Or shall I say a turtle tag ;)

I am so glad that Bob doesn't dig. He does other bad things tho. How old is WalkingRock? Do you know how much he weighs? He's really a very good looking tortoise...

I was reluctant to get a Sulcata so I started off with a Leopard and now I want a Sulcata, damn! I guess I won't ever be satisfied.

Be very careful…they are like cigarettes. Very addictive and hard to quit!

How do you get that tag to stay? I have contemplated getting a tag for Carl... he's not big enough for one yet but it'd be cute to have one anyways :p

That tag is applied with a Super 2part Epoxy ment for bridge anchors....is would NOT suggest using it as it is VERY permanent.... Now I can never move or change my phone number! :p
