Ilene update

[ColleenT]

So Ilene is living the good life, she prefers to hide out in the Den most of the daylight hours, and party it up at night. ( so i suspect). here she is at Worm feeding time..and yes, she ate it all!

Does everyone get along? Ilene and Rio...with the others?

 

[ColleenT]

oh yeah. it's one big happy family. at least they seem to give each other enough space..

 

[Rue]

Nice! I like big happy families!

 

[MPRC]

So glad to hear she's a part of the family now.

I think it was fate.

 

[Pearly]

Awww... So sweet! She IS very pretty

She looks like a big girl! What does she weight?

I have not weighed her.

Well she looks great. I weigh mine periodically just see any big changes in case they are gravid.. I have one that is 705 grams she went up 30 in the last few weeks.., 2 around 680.

I have not weighed her.

I would suggest weighing them periodically just for record in case of any abnormalities. Nothing wrong with data mining to see the patterns of your turtles especially if one of the females is gravid. Right now they should be eating quite well and gaining some weight before their nap time in October!

Oh, she really is gorgeous. Love the colour of her shell.
