On a different note… since I drug the scales out to weigh the tortoises, I also weighed my Lab ( who turned 12 in may) and Cinder the bulldog who will be 2 this august.. Duke weighed a solid 105lbs! And Cinder who is 1/8 of his size weighs 50!!! I didn’t even bother Rigsy.. lmao.. it’s no wonder my back hurts!!! Nothing stays little around my place

Yes mam!!! I dang near slammed the door off the hinges when I finally looked down and saw him. It wasn’t until I identified him as a king snake that I calmed myself down a bit.. I mean I opened the door and he was all up In The door jamb.. poor duke ( who always breaks his neck to run in the door) just trotted right across him.. good thing it wasn’t a bad one!

ME, TOO!! yes, I'm yelling. I hate snakes!!
I don't hate them but I like them best if they are in their nice tank... and someone else takes them out for quality and enrichment time ☺️ the wild ones usually end up under my foot for some reason. If there's a snake in the yard I'll find it.?

Sooo…I’m slaving away at the hospital and my nephew goes to my house to let the dogs out and finds a surprise. Tiny Tim is the only male that has been near Zigzag and 5 1/2. I was given the impression he was infertile. No other male near for 5 years. Both females have laid fertile eggs in the past. 6 foot block fence. How did this miracle happen?
