Fun Video

I decided to offer some of my tortoises a romaine treat today and video taped it. Not all came out to feed since it was late in the day but it's still fun to watch. Check it out if you like.

O wow, what a feast. I did not know a tortoise could love Romaine like that. I will give some to mine as a treat this week.

Thanks for sharing the video.

That was so great! I am so jealous of your yards full of torts, I love it! And I bet they do. One day when we have a summer in the NW I will get to do something like that too or even put them out in the "yard" I have for them now.

Thank you everyone, glad you all enjoyed it.

Yes we have dedicated our yard to turtles and tortoises, I will post a video of the ponds and the turtles soon.

Nice to see so many torts and all looking so natural.

I love during the winter when they are all inside and I feed the romaine. I make mine work for it and leave the leaves whole and some still on the stalk. They love the eating and I love the fact that you can hear the crunching all over the house. It's like they are a huge bunch of kids all trying to out crunch the other.

I never cut up the greens I give my torts. It seems more natural for them to rip and tear themselves. I do chop up the carrots, squash and the hard veggies in a food chopper. I love to hear them crunch it up too.
