I got my babies!!

[/size][/font]Finally received my 4 baby torts. I'm certain that they are T.h.b. and they are perfectly adorable. I have them in a large rubber thingy. I will take photos and post soon. They dig into the soil at night and only come out if the sun is coming in the window. It snowed today so they came out for a bite to eat and went back under. No basking. I have them in topsoil, rabbit pellets, and aspen. I think I will lose the pellets because they break up when I water the planting inside the enclosure.

I have a heat emitter, a 100 watt power sun uvb light (I am expecting a stand tomorrow), and 100 watt florescent light.

They are eating well and soooo cute! Who knew????

I will get photos of the enclosure and torts up as quickly as I can.

congrats on your new babies Pictures, pictures, pictures, love pictures
Yes I would lose the rabbit pellets they are dehydrating plus when they get wet they mold and are very hard for babies to walk in.
