Thanks

RE: male/female differences That was really interesting about the glands. ET has these and I thought they were little "dimples"! Puppies and baby pigs are born with a little "dimple" under their chins -they all have it. I have asked genetisits and vets why it is there and no one has ever...

What is Mazuri?

Thanks guys. I spent four hours yesterday raking and going through the backyard. I spent another 2 this morning. Everytime I hear a bird land, I go running!! Meanwhile, ET is basking in the sun, eating his meals, soaking in his tub and living the spoiled tortoise life while Crash is...

Thanks so much guys for all your support! I still have not found him. It was so funny about the temperature gun. I was thinking the EXACT same thing today! When a group of people were stealing hogs from the farms I managed, the big guns were called in and they watched the people through the...

-Meg - that is my fear! My yard is huge and alive with foliage. I am so afraid I might step on him. I am going to try having PB look for him again. I heard my other dog barking in the yard at 5 AM this morning and I ran out half naked (picture fat lady running around in backyard with a...

Thanks guys- I do NOT use Ivermectin. I use pyrantal on my dogs and the one female I have here that I co-own was dewormed with Panecure. I did do several poop checks and Crash checks as has my dad. There is no water that he has access too as my dog water buckets are too high. Do you think at...

I posted on another thread that I forgot ET in his bath for 24 hours and everyone was so nice to me but now I deserve to be beaten! I have an outdoor pen that I put my Russian in so he can hang out in the sun. It is in mostly shade under the trees. I stood on the deck and checked up on him...

A timer - that is the 'BOMB idea!!! I will never forget poor T again. I guess after 15 years forgetting him once is not that bad! I am glad that Switch is happy. I never left them out in the rain here as it is a bit cooler when it rains. I did find ET out munching during a thunder storm...

Robyn- I have been gone for a while but was following the early improvement of Little Bit. I never expected to come back to find she had passed. My heart-felt condolensces to you and your family. I know what it is like. I am sorry- you are the bomb mom!

OMG! I am a baaaaad Mom! I left ET in his bath for 24 hours! I felt so bad. The water was pukey brown and he was one pissed off dude! Usually I soak him in the sink but I decided to leave him on the deck that day because I was cleaning the kitchen. I got busy and forgot him. The next day...

Wow -he is handsom. I agree, what lucky people to have these things just walk up in their driveway. When I lost ET, I made posters and put them all over - especially on the mail box holders in my neighborhood. Luckily for me, my tort still has his license on him at the time he was lost so...

You guys and your baby torts make me want a baby tort - for a whole whopping minute! That is the cutest thing! What kind is it exactly?

Brilliant idea - the plastic bin - here you go Crash, thanks for flying Alaska! I agree with the education aspect. Funny that from Repro, my most entertaining class next to meats, that I remember the goat ejacualation (had no intention of EVER breeding goats, nor going to a cocktail party...

Yvonne- Your BT is living in high heaven in that enclosure. I WISH I had that much room. I live up against a trail and my backyard backs up to a park. I cannot leave my dogs outside for any length of time for fear of someone stealing them. I had a rednose APBT that would take our 7 1/2 foot...

I can only imagine the pain of your loss. I am so sorry. I too have many dogs and fortunately for me, because of my breed, mine are NEVER left unattended unless they are locked up and secure - AND SEPERATED. I do have one dog that I know would eat the torts if given enough time...

OK, I came home and brought in Crash and noticed that he has rubbed a raw spot on both sides of his neck. Nothing dangerous and not bleeding or anything but should I put something on it? I am guessing he stuck his head inbetween something as the grass is always greener...

I think that is so cool how you went out and got an incubator and all that. For that reason alone I hope they hatch for you! I love your sig line with the anti-tortoise wife about three lines under the Scotty! BWAAA HAAAA HAAAA!

I don't feel so alone anymore. Thanks! I thought I had an unhousebreakable tort!

OK. I can buy that. I was told when I first got him from the tortoise people that they generally do not mess in their food or their bedding. I found that to be totally wrong. Your answer is much more natural.
