OK. I accept the challenge. I have to go pick up horse poop and feed everyone, then I'll dust off the camera and get some nice shots of the Manouria kids.
Ok...now I already realize they need their beaks filed, so no one needs to remind me of that, alright? For me, being an old lady, its a two man job and a second set of arms is hard to come by around here.
Here's Medea and Darth coming out of their house and getting ready to head for the sun:
I wanted to show you a close-up of Darth so you can see his gulars. Quite impressive!
This is my largest one, Medea, heading for the hills:
And I dashed around in front of her so you could see her beautiful face...er...determination. She wouldn't hold still:
Phae had already made it out into the sun:
The Mee's haven't come out yet, but I'll try to catch them later.
I forgot to mention: in that first picture, the white thing that you see leaning up against the wall is a washing machine pan that I use as a slide to bring in the errant tortoise in the evening. There's usually one big one outside in the evening that needs to be brought in.
