This picture is taken in my garden, not in her enclosure but I can tell you what they are. :) She is about to munch on coleus "Rose" in that pic.
Then there are some hostas: Fragrant Bouquet in lower right, June in low left, can't remember hosta name in upper left, Paradigm in upper right...
She has been spending pretty much every night and day in her outdoor enclosure except for a couple nights. One night it started storming pretty bad so I ran out and grabbed her. She was pretty cold/wet as she had chosen to sleep under a hosta rather than in one of her hides. I wanted to warm her...
It was pretty warm today. She seemed to really be enjoying herself all day. She really enjoyed her soak too. Every time I give her a soak, she gets hungry. She got a special treat today after her soak today

Thanks everybody! We just love her. I have been calling her Little Girl rather than Ironman. Weston decided she will now be named Lizabeth. I like that name much better! I am attaching pic of her burrowing into some thyme.
Thank you! She is so darn cute. Weston met the FedEx driver at the truck. She was squirming away in the bag in the box. Got her out, and she promptly hid and peed. I held her inside my robe on the way to her house and when I peeked at her she hid and peed on me. Ha! I had romaine ready for her...
Hello everybody! We have used this website extensively while researching a tortoise or two to add to our family. It has been so helpful, so thank you so much everybody! :)
