Just wondering if other keepers may notice it.

Our adult redfoot, Bubbles, sometimes sits and stares at the TV screen for hours while in her enclosure. Maybe it's the lights flashing or.....? :cool:

Bubbles is a very sociable tortoise, btw. :tort:

I hope you can find it, I'm really curious. My Redfoot fascinates me...so outgoing and loves attention. I'm getting a second one tomorrow. CL score!!!

I use to have an English Bulldogge that fancied Zoro....it was much more fun to watch the dog watching the movie than actually watching the movie...:D

It's pretty funny, they seem to settle down in their soaks when the TV is on versus when its not.. cute either way [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH AND SMILING EYES]
