Great job melissa!!! That is one lucky tortoise to have found you and your son!

Thank you! He's doing really awesome. Over the past two weeks he's developed a ravenous appetite and is getting much spunkier. The other day my son was concerned because he was trying to get out of his enclosure. He was being very determined and my son was concerned he'd get out. He just kept moving him away from the edge and after about five minutes he stopped and pooped. We're thinking Mr. Sheldon wants to keep his house clean. Is this even possible in tortoises?

Afraid not. They don't care where they go, but movement helps with the going.

Jodie - that's what I was thinking.
