Pretend Chat 2.14

I think I deserve to spend the rest of the day in my recliner reading stories on the Kindle. I washed and dried two loads of laundry. I stapled plastic sheeting around the outside of the Yellowfooted tortoise's 'porch'. I gave Misty a bath. Of course, it goes without saying, I fed, watered and cleaned up after about 30 tortoises. My back is killing me and my recliner is calling me.

I took in this big boy yesterday. It always amazes me that brand new to my yard tortoises understand the vinyl strip door and go right into the shelter at night. Also, another real smooth sulcata. I guess we're finally getting the hang of it.

I didn't weigh him, but he's about 100lbs.

Wow, he's beautiful! I wonder why someone would give him up.

I'm really bummed that photos don't load on the app.

He was a 'found' tortoise about 5 years ago (they didn't bother to try and find his owner). They have a small yard and the tortoise was getting restless about staying there, and started digging and pushing at the fence. Also there was no grass and they had to buy groceries for him.

Ken - the photos don't load for me, just broken links.

I get pretty strange ones regularly. It's just part of being on the forum. If it's worrying or against the forum rules then forward it to the mods to deal with.

If it's something that really should be answered on the forum then ask them to start a thread so others can be helped by the answers too.

If it's just weird then ignore it. You are not obliged to get into conversation with anyone.

Unless it’s a strange, weird pm from me, I agree with joesmom here 100%

Uhm... Lol
