Good morning!!
We have had rain since yesterday and should continue until Wednesday!
This really slows my project down and we tore out the old tort enclosure except for the sully.
It’s not gonna be fun trying to contain them with cold wet weather.
I was wondering about that.

Good morning all, I guess 1 small frangipani flower doesn't affect Opo. At least not yet. Hope everyone is good. Going to my monthly doctor's app. To get my prescription that helps me make it thru life :):mad::):mad::)
Opo has been keeping you in your feet the last few months Ray. Very mischievous tort:tort:

Our school’s Year 1 tried to hatch some chicks but it didn’t work. :( I think it’s because they didn’t have Lyn. Then a mom stepped in and brought some chicks from her own farm and let the Year 1’s pretend they did it. [emoji85]

Husband and I had to hold two of those chicks at an assembly for the children to pet them. :rolleyes: Fortunately nobody took a picture of me doing it, because I was the photographer for that day. [emoji23]
I once put a toy dinosaur in amongst my eggs but one of the boys was convinced we had hatched a baby T Rex. He was really disappointed when I explained the joke. I told him it just wouldn't be possible but it was only when I asked him if we would really want a hungry T Rex in the classroom he agreed that chicks were better.:)

Good evening all. Hope everyone is having a good Monday.
Lola has been in and out of the garden many times today.:)
He's had a nibble on his grass and clover but it's not been sunny enough to bask today.
Hopefully he's just getting his bearings and will stay out longer when it is warmer.

Hi Heather, we've had some lovely warm days this spring, but then the temps dropped and we had ground frost again last week.
Today was cloudy and showery but about 64F - set to drop down into the 50s for the weekend.:(
It can't quite make its mind up!
Hope its a bit warmer where you are.

Yes. I’m sure every outside tortoise has accidentally nibbled or eaten or munched on a NO NO PLANT. The key is don’t deliberately feed, and restrict access to toxic plants.

It’s hot here in Md. Sully is taking a break under our picnic table.
Yes and so have cats and dogs...and bunnys. Carrot tops are actually considered a food for rabbits but limit carrots and limit both.??? Ms. Sully is almost as big as me! That's down right ridiculous! I weigh in a whopping 89 pounds. Happy birthday to Ms.Sully. Glad I have a Russian to boss around.

The KGB and GRU and FSB will want to know much more about these alleged “Russians” you are bossing around.

Their info...
