Awww thank you! Unfortunately I'm make a lousy and totally illequiped spy! Don't have a camera that would be appropriate for a stake out there. I have to do this all "low tech".

I figured, cameras with good resolution are expensive for regular people that are not in youtube or movie industry. But someone is eating your mazuri, hope he is 
. I doubt he is far, considering the weather previous days. Maybe he shows up if it gets warmer? What do the say about the next few days?

I hope that you already found him, I lost my old russian tortoise a couple of years ago beacuase I put him in the garden to ea the lettuce and veggies that I grew for him. I forgot about him that night and didn't find him for three days. There was a trail, like the type a gopher leaves when he near the ground. I followed the trail about ten feet underneath the edge of the garden bed and dug a small hole at the end and I found him still digging away. Luckily, those nights were in the high sixties. Best of luck
Thank you Guys, last 2 nights were cold (close to freezing temps) but it's warming up now

I need a good weather app what app is that one?
The Weather Channel. I don't know if it's GOOD, it's just one I've always had
That's always a possibility, but who would ever? And why???? This is a nice a peaceful neighborhood of dog/cat lovers. I don't typically hear about people keeping reptiles... But... you never know

Oh ok cool thanks
So was hoping you had found him. Is it at all possible a bird took him? Fingers crossed he is found
Number of possibilities exists, I'm still keeping the heating lamps out there and putting fresh food/water dishes daily. Today was such beautiful afternoon I put Shellie out there and watched her, where she'd go for cover, but she'd just go hide under big strawberry plant, or bushy parsley, no digging at all. She does dig inside her "nursery" at times. I'm just going through the motions now, but still hopeful. Have not seen birds big enough to handle Tucker's size lately, so hopefully not. Thanks for checking on us

I keep returning, expecting to read that you found him.
I know! Me too!
I wish I was handy enough to make one of those but if I see more signs of activity when temps warm up over here, I may rent one of those out. Thanks for this idea

His in the neighborhood block somewhere he can't go to far
I think that too. Just hope he gets found before getting sick or attacked by some animal

Yes very true I would look in the morning times in neighbors yards that's probably when he's out looking for food he's not too far
I hope you find him
Just went back to Tortoise Library the emegency preparideness section there. I haven't taken the flyer with Tucker's picture to vet clinic and pet store in our area, also I think I'll change the header from "lost tortoise" to "lost turtle". Most people love baby turtles and don't know about tortoises. It also suggested in that section after completing sequence of steps (things to do in the process of searching) to go back to step 1 which is getting on hands and knees and feeling with hands every plant base, wall perimeter of the block around my house. God, I love it that so many smart people share their know how and make it available to idiots like me
