Yea iv seen it Ed on amazon but it's that type u just said coz I put a thread on a bit ago with a pic and u told me then it was the wrong stuff :-(
Most tortoises do not like LS. So it might be a waste of money.
But the regular Mazuri is something that most tortoises absolutely love.

Thank u Linda I looked in there and put a picture of the mazuri on a thread in here and a lot of people commented to say it's the ls one but as long as the Komodo are ok I'll continue to use them clyde loved them :)
Soak them in plain water before feeding so they go soft and expand. It suggests you can use fruit juice, but don't. Fruit juice is too sugary. Plain water is all that is needed.

Aged around 6-10 we lived near Weston Super Mare and my Dad worked in Bristol. It didn't look that smart by the river in those days!

I waved at Bath for you Adam @Tidgy's Dad as we went through on the train. It looked as picturesque as ever :)
I love Bristol and although it's not too far down the M4 and across the Bridge I don't go often anymore. I used to go to see bands at a place called the Granary on the waterfront, but only go occasionally to the theatre now. The last time I was there I was on a Womblyn mission taking a lot of old vhs tapes to a recycling collection place - which has sadly closed now. Apparently the zoo has some huge tortoises 'as big as a hippo' so one of my class was telling me the other day.

I was treated to a clothes dryer repair when I got home.
Then I had to rotate the tires on Kellys car.
I checked out baby Joe and he is very cute. He's 31.6 mm front to back and no wider than a quarter.
His yolk is gone. Leaving behind a thin, flat membrane that moves in and out when he breathes. It's scary to look at.
But he looks perfectly formed.
I placed a peice of Kale in front of him.
He didn't notice it yet.
The second egg is ready to hatch and a quick inspection of the incubator didn't reveal any other eggs pipping yet.
He's beautiful Ed! Welcome Little Joe and I wish you a long and happy life!

Lola won't touch the Komodo pellets. I tried him with some recently and he turned his nose up at them.

Evening all looks like I missed you all again.
Hope everyone is well.
It was a beautiful day here today but temps dropping again tomorrow and strong winds and rain back for the weekend - I'm never going to get a chance to get up my new ladders and clean my guttering!
I see Adam isn't back yet he must still be tort spotting at Sousse.
Well I'd better say goodnight and will try to catch some of you tomorrow.
Until then take care and Nos Da!
