Wouldn't a diaper annoy a tort?

I'm afraid I'm missing the whole point of this thread. What does "TBT" mean? And what does "so much bigger than on facebook" mean?

If you're just showing pictures of your two sulcatas, ok, I get it. Nice looking tortoises. But I don't get the title of the thread.

I see that it's important for you to keep your floors clean. The best way to do that is to keep your tortoises outside where they belong.

Yeah, keeping torts in the house on the floor isn't safe, either. The cold floors, possibility of them eating something off the floor that could hurt them, accidental kicking/stepping on/catching heads or limbs in doorways, etc. Is this just a temporary or very infrequent thing, where they are on the floor instead of an enclosure?

Ah...I see. In that case, I agree with thehowards (who are more 'with it' than I), where are the current pictures? And I'll bet those tortoises live outside now, right?

I get the concerns, I should have clarified that they DO NOT LIVE INSIDE OUR HOME....the diaper idea was just a one day thing for cute pictures, sort of like Anne Geddes pictures of babies....my torts live outside in a big secured enclosure with a two room heated home. Sorry it made some of you worry. ImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1441229060.091949.jpg

PS: the house behind Karla in the picture above is her home. :)
