Cooper & Ophelia's 1st spring day!

[cemmons12]

So since we had a 75 degree day I took my kid's outside for the 1st time since winter started. Cooper had a blast and ate everything in sight. Ophelia on the other hand is so scared of everything she didn't seem to enjoy herself much. I just hope I can earn her trust and maybe someday she will be a little more like Cooper.

They are gorgeous!! I love that I can start taking my tortoise outside again. Can't wait until weeds start growing!

Thanks everybody! I am so happy I can take them outside. I have been talking to Cooper all winter telling him we would go out as soon as it got above 70, LOL! Today he sat in the same general spot for 10 minutes eating everything he could. Then he would follow me around grab'n a bite about every other step. He cracks me up. So far Ophelia still has not ate anything from outside. I worry about her... She hasnt been eating very good for the last month or so.
Have a good day everyone!

Yaaaayyyyyy! great pics Chris...Coop is absolutely handsome and Ms Ophelia will be booking about chowing down before long...especially once she understands what the gig is all about...lol....

Thanks u all! I can't wait till we get moved so I can make them their own outdoor place where I don't have to stand right there with them. I love spending time with them, but I can't even just walk to the garage for a few cause I am afraid they will be gone if I don't keep an eye on them. Plus if Cooper finds any bright color'd rocks he thinks they r food so I have to watch him like a hawk! Question tho, in the pics, can anybody tell what kind of plant that is by Cooper and Ophelia on the ground? He just loves eating whatever it is and I just want to be sure its safe for him to eat! Thanks again!!!

I know the pics are not very good of the grass area, but can anyone tell what that stuff is? Cooper eats it like crazy. Maybe I can get a better pic if I need to. I just want to make sure Cooper isn't eating something bad! Thank you all so much!!!

Another pic of the stuff. Thanks again!

Thanks a lot! Me too! She did so good for the 1st few months and now she just seems to eat enough to stay alive and that's it. Worries me to death......
