I know this is nothing new but its new to me so thought id share. I had my 1st experience with a failed egg. It seems to have "exploded" so to speak. I recon the tort died in the egg and gas buildup caused a "bang". Here are some photos. Kinda bummed out.. :(

Yep, she did :) Were all super excited here!!

Hi All, Yesterday and one of my junior torts during her soak my foot her I looked a little funky so I took some pictures. I came home today check her immediately and of course it's doubled in size and oozing ever so slightly. Below is some pictures the first few are from yesterday the last...

Hehehe, bath time. Dirty lil torts :)

On a happier note... One of my girls here has been displaying some nesting behavior. Tomorrow I'll be taking her down for an x ray to verify that she is indeed gravid. I've got my incubator all set up and ready to go just in case. Heres a pic of the (hopefully) soon mama to be :)

Hi Everyone, To make a long story short, the last two days have been very trying. My grandmother has had two surgeries in two days....as it turns out weve located and removed a mass, turns out to be malignant. Unlike most people I was not raised by my parents I was raised by my grandparents, so...

Yes, pun intended..... I have a tort, who i swear has channelled her deep inner turtle. This girl will all day every day, sit,lay, bask and even sleep right in her water dish. There can be no dehydration, i see her drink all the time,gets her soaks etc....deep inside, she craves her missing...

Ok, one of my new, larger females had been very reclusive, and eating sparingly for the past couple weeks since i had her. The only thing she ate hardily was mazuri, go figure. Anyhoo, today i had a chat with her, be it as it may....20 mins after my pep talk, BAM! Shes chompin down! (A lil...

....aaaaand I told Mama,lol

Ok, here goes one of my weird questions. As you may know, i have recently received several new torts. We are going through the quarantine process, so they are all separated in tubs. They are all in the same room. So, in the last couple days since i added the two new girls, i have noticed a...

Totally sux.... Supposed to have delivery by 10am, its now 1245pm and here I sit, using a sick day from work, waiting...bastages. Gimme my torts, damnit! Lol

This is more meant for you all than it is me. Rewind the clock back to the beginning of 2013 and you would see me not knowing the slightest about tortoises husbandry, or reptiles in general. Since then with everything you all have taught me, for a beginner I at least like to think I'm fairly...

Just a few pics of all of the gang. I have some marvelous animals here, but my pride and joy is still my lil hatchling Tortellini, shhhhh dont tell the others, lol.. Hope you enjoy as much as I do :)

Everyone loves Mazuri Night :)

Kinda funny, I fed all the torts today. After I put all their food down I guess my little hatchling Tortellini heard the bigger guys in their tubs down below. He was pacing back and forth and looking at them through his window. I yelled to my wife and said babe look, Tortellini is like a king...

Hi All, Snapped a few of the Cherries, thought I'd share [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]
