COLD DARK ROOM

[Chubbs the tegu]

Too freakin hot for me, but I am enjoying watching my tortoises have fun in the sprinkler and the pond. Remember ABN my constipated tortoise? He went in the pond, and sunk to the bottom then didn't move, so I waited, and waited and waited. About 10 minutes I couldn't stand it and went in to get him. Water was cold, I shook him about and tipped him head down and shook him. No water came out his mouth so I tipped him back and looked at him, and his eyes were staring at me and mad looking. I put him down, and he stomped away into his hide. How funny it was, I thought he was drowning and he thought he was relaxing in the pool...lol

That guy is gonna give u a nervous breakdown loll

What a relief! If it had been a box turtle, you probably would have given him a lot longer before sending in a lifeguard.

Or one of my Sulcata. But ABN is kinda fragile and I treat him that way. I should probably should just leave him be a tortoise

I thought you said I was gonna give him a breakdown...that's more like it haha

I throw them out my car window, on the rare occasion someone is tailgating me.

Hell to the yes!!!

What kind of tortoise is AB? Besides one that makes you worry...

 

[Maggie3fan]

Hell to the yes!!!

I generally drive too fast to get tailgated. HA!

I never minded a little close contact so I will brake check them! The hitch on the back of my truck prevents damage to the truck but will really do a number to someone else’s grill...!

I think he’s a desert tortoise... ????

That’s genius! I have a truck, now all I need is a hitch. Hmm, I probably shouldn’t buy one my husband would brake for no reason. We would probably owe a lot, well at least it would be worth it. ?

Pumpkin having a soak. Is this enough water or shall I add a little more?

She is so cute!

She’s grumpy today. She’s starting to shred. Can see it round near her eyes

The water should be a tiny bit past where her carapace meets her plastron.

Ahh, now I see it

I’m still learning the posh terms what area you on about ?

 

[Golden Greek Tortoise 567]

Carapace is the top part of the shell and plastron is the bottom part

LOLOLOLOLOLOL! My Camaro is very low so normally the trailer hitch on trucks would hit me about mid-hood. I am very careful about that as I am a speeder, a tailgater and an all around aggressive driver in a very fast powerful car. I have extreme fun driving.

He's just a tortoise. The kind that makes his keeper worry about him on a regular basis. Maggie could rename him Trouble. Then, if he ever disappears, she can get @Chubbs the tegu to look for him. Jay finds trouble like a bloodhound!

Pretty lady!
