Last weekend I pulled all of the weeds in George's pen and planted some really high quality grass seed recommended by @Tom. It's starting to sprout, as you can see in the picture.

Here's a picture of Mr. George sitting in the doorway of the house this morning. In case you're wondering about the redness under his chin, that was from eating cactus fruit for the past few days.

Mr
George was chilling this morning. Here in North Florida the mornings are cool(65-75 degrees) before noon. Then, the day becomes as hot as the middle of summer for a couple of hours. It's also very dry for them. Then around 5 -6 p.m temps drop a bit and all the animals know it's time to go to sleep after supper. A nice warm and humid room awaits them. George comes running to me everytime he hears my voice! I just love this little guy ❤
I just thought this was so cute. He was bathing and decided he wanted to see what was happening outside of his tub LOL 
That's adorable!
He weighed 5 lbs a year ago. Now, he's about 25 lbs. When his mom comes back home from Japan in 3 years, he'll be a monster LOL
Here's a recent photo of Mr. George soaking up the sun on an otherwise cool day. As you can see, he just loves to bask in the sun.
And here's one of him (taken just yesterday) munching on some freshly planted rye grass.

Very nice-looking tortoise.
