Hey all! Just thought I would update you all on Morgan. Today he kind of freaked me out. Being a new tort mom, I kind of worry for everything but he seems to be doing okay. When I was soaking him he refused to put his head up. I don't know if he was being stubborn today or what but I got so scared. I cut his soaking short today for fear he would drown himself. It didn't look like he was drinking water.
Aside from that, I took him outside, and he seemed to be a pretty happy tort. He walked around, ate his food, and drank some water. So maybe I was just overreacting, I did want to point it out to you guys just in case it may be something I should be concerned about. Outside of that he's been doing pretty good. Sleeping a lot, but that's what hatchlings seem to do best!
I want to say I see growth lines, but I have no idea when they start getting them. Some funny things he does is always take the most difficult route-- he would much rather go over a stone than around it. He prefers his weeds much more over his spring mix, so it's kind of funny how he always walks over to them, I still give him both anyways. He has gotten used to his hides, but still prefers to dig himself into the ground. He's a lovely little tort.
If you guys see anything unusual in the pictures please don't be shy to point them out, unfortunately I don't know what to look for.
Anyway, here are some pictures of my baby, enjoy his irresistible cuteness! =) :
