This is how Steve sleeps in his "hide", pushes it over under the heat lamp and snoozes away!

Kinako is a ham. My wife put the leaf on his head and he sat and waited for her to take the pic before shaking it off. The pic is in a daily turtle/tortoise calendar in Japan.

He always tries to go out when the door is opened but hasn't quite mastered that first step. Hard to see in the picture but you have to step up to enter the house.

He also likes chilling with my kids in the kotatsu...

Sheldon has a thing for hoodies. Today I folded him up in that hoodie. He dug around for a while, got comfortable and fell asleep. Woke up a while later, managed to unfold the entire thing, walked to another sweater, and fell asleep again.
Maybe I should make him a tortoise sweater vest? :p

Ha! He loves hoodies. That's funny. We should recruit Sheldon into the Hoodie Monk crew!

Came home and couldn't find my smallest Redfoot anywhere. She wasn't in her hide or anything. Just as I was starting to panic...

KristinasPictures3865.jpg


I found her, lol.

KristinasPictures3867.jpg


She had to have walked up the wall by pushing one leg on the wall and one on the pot, little creep ;)

I got a little overzealous wetting down my Greek's enclosure one day. She didn't mind... Made a nice sleeping spot...

And the next morning, she was posing as "Morla."

This is one of my favorites. Mikka is very sweet and quiet, unless she thinks I have WORMS. But I just love this picture of her.

Okay, last story, but this one requires a series of photos.

When I built my Manouria enclosure, I originally had the hide too close to the outside wall, as I quickly realized. I looked over to find this -

I said, "Uh-oh." My husband said from across the yard, "'Mountain' tortoise?" I said yep, lol.

KristinasPictures122.jpg


KristinasPictures123.jpg


KristinasPictures124.jpg


And the last and best picture -

KristinasPictures125.jpg


Now tell me, TELL ME that that little tortoise is NOT as pleased as punch with himself and grinning from ear to ear! I won't believe you! In fact I felt really, really bad when I had to put him back in the enclosure, after moving the hide, of course.

(The fact that he was coated in Mazuri was icing on the cake, lol.)

To be honest, I don't think he was much fussed about it.

I moved that hide into their indoor winter enclosure, lol, and if he isn't eating or mud wallowing, he is on top of it ;)

Walter is absolutely fearless, personality wise. She just snuck up to me sitting on the floor and ate a bite of my pudding cup... Sadly I didn't get a picture.

Sully is adorable! That's a sucata, right? I got mine when he was almost six and I always wanted to see one go from cute little baby to giant.

Oops. I was talking about Ted actually. But I'm sure sully's cute too.
