More zilla!

and me with zilla ;)


He gets a good 30 mins of petting on the weekend from me and the gf...during the week im busy at vet tech school but he stays busy roaming the backyard eating grass all day and whatever i give him, dont know if its a male or female yet but i do know he/she's been growin a steady 4-5lbs each month the last year or so and shell still seems prrrty smooth ;) Only downside is the cleaning up of poop once weekly....hardly has any smell but fills up an entire big bucket LOL

love Muscovy ducks! what does the smaller wire along the bottom of the fence keep out? or did it help keep him in?

Those ducks are actually really friendly but once they started coming in and eating the tortoise's food i had to stop feedin em ;(. The wire along the bottom was actually from 5 yrs back when I got the lil aldabra (who weighed 14-15 ounces at the time, could put him in the palm of my hand)...so he couldnt get out. Now it doesnt matter....he cant get out...but it keeps the ducks/toads/frogs out ;)
