Sorry Carl.. they insist on calling them "cherryheads" as if they were a unique species of tortoise!
"They" are really going to have trouble with this "ORANGE" "cherryhead"/Brazilian!
Here she is in the typical 'nesting trance'.. yeah she's a 'cherryhead' -
She finally started nesting about 2p -
Then after 'digging' for over an hour she started this -
And I robbed her nest when she started to cover it back up about 3:15p -
If you think a "door-knob" is slippery.. pick up a redfoot egg and run it under water to wash it off.. coded and ready for the incubator -
This year her eggs are so much larger than prior years - hoping this means she's finally "coming-of-age"!
Also hoping this guy is the father.. his red/orange and her orange should make beautiful babies!!!
He absolutely would NOT stop moving -
Amazed I got this 'profile' -
A new 'nose' shot -
Now we wait 120 - 135+ days...
