The enclosure isn't finished, and after the rain the water dish was a little dirty, but I wanted to see what Izzy would do for a trial run in her new pen. She looked scared to death. The plants have't established yet but it was almost 80 degrees here today soooooooo...here's Izzy.

And Yvonne...are you sure this is a box turtle. I have never seen a cuter boxie in my life. Everyone I show his pictures to can't believe how cute he is with his bug eyes. I always wanted a black leaf boxie, and now I don't need one. Chewy just woke up this morning and I had to take a picture. Tim tells everyone...he's not Grandma's..the lady sent him to me. He's mine...

Really, if any one has a boxie with bug eyes like this I would love to see a picture. I have shown pictures to a bunch of "boxie friends" and no one ever saw one with those bug eyes. I wonder if he will grow into them and then he won't have them any more. I hope he keeps them...I just LOVE those bug eyes. Yvonne...does his Dad really have them that big??

Yes, his dad's eyes are real buggy! When I first got him I thought they were swollen, but he's been like that now for about 3 years. When I start feeding them next week, he'll come out better so I can get a good picture.

Terry, you're just a natural with these enclosures and plants. It looks beautiful. Chewy eyes remind me of my pugs eyes :p maybe their related. :D
