I keep noticing that no matter how Tom tries to indoctrinate new keepers with young Sulcata they don't seem to hear him. I believe he is well spoken and knows how to communicate. But sometimes they just don't get it...NO! Sulcata tortoises are not from the desert, nor do they live on sand. Now my tortoise is not as pretty as most, but she is a rescue. She always acted petrified when I stuck her in a tote to soak, so I soaked her anyway...now she acts just like ever other Sulcata I have had...
I went out to sit in the sun for a while and watch Mary. But after I saw her I hadda run in the house and grab my camera. This is what I saw a couple of hours ago from my deck
