Lol. Well now Sabine is going to have to find a different one for you if she is your secret Santa. Maybe she can get you one that says "Keep calm and Tortoise on!"Indeed. I even asked for a similar tortoise sign from Sabine in case she’s my TORTOISE next time! [emoji85]
LOL. “Tortoise on” for some reason reminded me of this song...
That was about torts, wasn’t it?
Now you must get that tort. You already have the CHE all you need is the tort.Indeed. I even asked for a similar tortoise sign from Sabine in case she’s my TORTOISE next time! [emoji85]
I was thinking the same today. As soon as I have a permanent home! Fingers crossed.
Was just looking at the pictures of your enclosure on the other thread. I’ll have to ask for your help when the time comes.
Rue’s patterns are amazing. Are her parents as beautiful?
Greetings all, even though the US Northeast/Mid-Atlantic states have had a very long unusually cold Spring.... the Cherry trees around the US Capital Tidal Basin are days away from “peak bloom” (when 70% of the flowers are open). Here’s a quick pix of how they are looking...
Lol. I like that one. That would be a perfect sign from a secret Santa.LOL. “Tortoise on” for some reason reminded me of this song...

Rue is alot darker than her parents actually. Although her father is darker than the mother. I was looking at Kanga and I can see a faint bit of white appearing around his shell as well. He is also starting to go a bit darker.I was thinking the same today. As soon as I have a permanent home! Fingers crossed.

Ohh. That is beautiful. Do you guys get to pick the cherries when they are ripe?
My eyes are starting to ache. Book and bed time for me. Hope I’ll dream of torts marching in and crossing roads only at special crossings.
Good night and sleep tight. Sweet dreams.
These are mainly grown as ornamental flowering trees, not as fruit producers.
The Yoshino Cherry Tree (Prunus x yedoensis) is so beautiful and graceful that it’s the star of The Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington, DC. Every year thousands of people converge on our nation’s capital to see the hundreds of Yoshino Cherry Trees in bloom.
Your Yoshino Cherry Tree bursts into bloom in spring and the flowering will last for several weeks. The young blooms are a pale pink that matures to white with a slight pink hue. The clusters of flowers are so bright they almost glow.
A nice bonus to the stunning flowers is the wonderful, almond-like smell they give off. Light spring breezes will carry the scent throughout your yard.
As summer swings in and the flowers disappear, green leaves and shiny black decorative fruit take their place. Then, when summer gives way to fall, the glossy dark green foliage turns a deep golden-orange.
Yoshino Cherry Tree performs best in full sun in any well drained soil.

Hey everyone. How's it going?
Well, Jacques is not so great.
She stopped eating about a week ago, won't climb up on her basking platform, and doesn't come up front to watch and interact with us.
All she wants to do is hang out in the dark area in the back of her tank and float bask near her heater. This is very much the behaviors she had when she was developing the pneumonia.
I fear it may have come back.We have an appointment next Tuesday (the 10th) with the specialist vet, but they've agreed to call me if anyone cancels before then so I can get her in sooner.
We cannot afford another 3- week hospital treatment for her.
I hope my fears are wrong.
But SOMETHING is the matter with her, and it sure looks like it did before.
hugs to all.
