Congratulations - I've been following this story with admiration from the beginning, and I am so glad it has a very happy ending !!
Aww, thank you! I appreciate you mentioning it to me. As an update I think instead of packing him/her up every night, I will just take him home. We have sustained winds of 25-30 mph with gusts up to 50 mph. Even during the day that is no place for any animal much less a tort to be in an open-top enclosure in an open hallway. Thank you again for your support, I think the cute guy will have a happier life this way.

Good morning all! Have any of you had your COVID shot? If you want to feel like twice baked crap for 2 or 3 days go ahead! Usually I'd be below convicts and and above homeless in the tier system but since I work with snot nosed brats and their lunatic parents I'm in the next tier. I digress. Someone asked for pictures to see if Pistachio - whose name I will be changing to Archie/Edith Bunker, Eddie/Edith Money or any other suggestion besides Speedy, Tortellini, Shelly.... I am a bit worried about the pink lines. Growth or infection?

Those are tan lines lol.. new growth lines and perfectly normal. And as Mags said it is still to small to tell the sex.

Well of course itʻs ALWAYS a good thing. When I want you to shut up Iʻll send you pictures of my neighbors dog. Constantly. Everyday. Test me if you like. ? ??

Please don’t call her chef. That’s a sucky name. She is in HAWAII!!!
Call her : Andramida
Or luau
Or lee-lou
Or hibiscus
Or a Hawaiian ? flower name!
She deserves at least that!
If would have been a boy I would have suggested : Don ho!! ?
Sorry , I’ll shut it now.?
Don’t want anybody to get CRAZY ?

I like the name Sanoe, in Hawaiian it means the mist that floats over the mountains, but probably not a good choice for a sully. Back to the drawing board

No, that IS nice ! and different??
Everybody is using the same old names.
Just take a real long look at your torts face... study it.. now....... what’s the first name you think of???
What does she look like to you?
When I got my tort I made the HUGE mistake of naming HIM Salvador (after the friend that helped me rescue him)......
23 years have passed....
and just last month Salvador...laid an egg??
There are no words.....
So now long story short I have changed it to Sally. Which I don’t like.
But I find myself calling her :
Pilaf
Pikachu
and mostly,
Monkey , little monkey and Punk Head. ?
“Come on little monkey! Time for nummers!” I find myself saying OUT LOUD IN THE YARD!!!! ?

Lol! As well you should. I think tort owners are allowed that type of privilege, talking to torts like people. Nah, we’re all nuts.

I think you stole my script. C’mon buddy, time for morning mums! And I am not ashamed ?

But I don’t think she’ll be floating over the mountains any time soon. And if she manages it, I can guarantee you that it won’t be graceful. At all.
