Her next weigh-in is on m March first, and I'm hoping she'll hit 1500g.

In general, she's doing quite nicely.

She's an explorer. She loves taking a bath. She cleans her plate everyday. She hisses at me (the only one of my tortoises to do so) despite knowing me quite well.Truly a gorgeous girl, Jamie. What's her personality like now that she's grown up a little more?

I was amazed just now to hear a noise from her enclosure, look over, and see her shoving the waterbowl out of the way so she could snack on the earthworms living beneath it.
I have worms and pillbugs in all of my enclosures as cleanup crew, but this is the first time I've seen one of my tortoises hunting/farming for them.

My parents have a Rose of Sharon tree in their yard; this morning before Ben and I left, I clipped off a garbage bag full of flowers and leaves, which Aretha loves.
