If he was mine I would find it very difficult to stop cuddling him.
He is a cuddle monster... But only in the evenings.
He's a nutter in the day :D

It's not hard to stop cuddling him if he has wind like tonight... In fact, we all have to run out the room!

He's lucky we love him :D
Not everyone could put up with his wind haha. It's impossible not to love him to bits though :)

Umm - well in that case I'll leave the cuddling to you.

yeah shes good :) , perfect timing as well, only hlf a pouch left from last trip, we have not had to buy any in about 4 months it's been handy!

just been looking at threads on enclosures, hope this build will turn out as pictured in my head! popping into iron mongers tomorrow to see about a track for glass. we are really lucky to have everything in walking distance:)

can I pick your brain? had the idea of ball baringings in the track to aid the sliding glass, if you follow me?
Sounds a good idea.
Should work, though i'm a bit rubbish at practical ideas.

Ahh John you'll never guess what?!?! I just seen a girl I used to work with who has a tortoise and posted a pic of Facebook and honestly I'm devistated! Poor thing has a massively overgrown beak, really long nails and is in one of the tiniest enclosures I have ever seen with beech wood chips as the substrate - I now totally get your situation with the Russian!
I sent her a pm with the hope she kindly takes my advice but I'm thinking about tort napping myself now - was really upsetting to see :(
Suggest she comes on the forum.
We'll be nice and gentle (or some of us will) and guide her in the right direction.

It'll take a while for him to adapt have you tried waving any of it a few inches away from him? Beastie usually gets really curious and comes over for a sniff and a bite!
I'm living in a construction site Gillian - I hate it so much and beastie is really unsettled and it barely eating, drinking or evening basking. He's sitting in his hide ALL DAY! I don't usually like to disturb him but I keep bringing him out and putting him under his light. Then after 2 minutes he walks back to his hide again! Arghhh!!
Patience.
He'll settle in, given time.

Gives me an idea for a new game - hedgehog bowling - not that we'd be able to see to play it but could adapt it I suppose.
Great idea, we can use cans of Dr Pepper for Skittles and put a jellyfish on top of each so we can see what we're aiming at.
i'll set it up tonight, and we can have a game tomorrow.
