My torts thought I was their food!!!

[Lil' Tortie]

One day I put one foot in the outdoor enclosure, some of them came and sniff at my foot and sandal, and start biting on the sandal. This morning I put my hand on the indoor enclosure floor and my sulcatas, feisty as they were, stomping as they came over, sniffed and bit on my fingers! Geez, if they can do that as babies, how dangerous would they be as adult! Or, will they grow out of it? Interestingly cute!

Because you are the food god, it is my opinion that the tortoises (mine do it too) think that you ARE food.

Haha, you are right Yvonne

Everytimes Hermy sees my hand near her, she tries to bite it

I find that very cute

My Foster DT follow me around like little ducklings waiting for food. If I stop long enough they try and bite my feet.
