In case you did get the title ...it's 'Oh My God Breakfast' (but with food in tortoise mouth) lol

That's what I think my leopards are saying when they get finished with their morning soak and get to tear up their fresh clover/grass/dandelion/romaine/mazuri buffet. The look on their precious face sis priceless.
I could watch these beauties eat all day.

Hahaha, thought auto correct played a trick on you. Nice pic. Love the two going for the same piece of Mazuri.

Awesome picture and I loved the title to the thread! You rock! : ) And yes, very calming to watch them eat. Weird how that is. Nice though.

Diamond,every time I see one of your torts I see images in its shell that look like skulls tattoos,do you guys see the skulls?(the little one near the top,is she the one that gave you a hard time about eating?).could quit work and look at your pics all day. ....love ya

 

[BeeBee*BeeLeaves]

edwardbo, I went back and you are right, I see them, too. diamondbp, your little ones are punk! or day of the dead cool. : )

 

[AnnV]

Those babies are just gorgeous!

 

[Moozillion]

Love your torts and LOVE your title!!!


I was trying to picture them all as adults, but I figure you must have a lot of room!

 

[diamondbp]

Thanks all. No Ed that's not my sick hatchling. My sick hatchling is racking my brain because I'm doing everything possibly and she simply isn't responding anymore :/ . I unfortunately don't see her recovering

But my others are doing GREAT. My little one does have some crazy interesting markings on the shell. That one just fascinates me but I love them all. They are all so different

No progress with the little one anymore?
I know what it is like to do all you can...and well...

But I'm curious. Do the problems with the little one boil down to just that one night left outside?

 

[diamondbp]

No unfortunately it's not looking good at all. I suspect strongly that it was fighting something earlier than that one night in the cool. I guess ill never know for sure but my heart is broken. Especially because it rebounded for two weeks and them did a total nose dive into a regression stage and hasn't climbed out. I place most of the fault on myself for ceasing the carrot baby food soaks because she was feeding and pooping. I think if I would have kept those up for a few more weeks she would have ended up fine. I guess we will never know. It's such a shame.

 

[ulkal]

I can totally hear them saying that

Sorry about your little one. Fingers crossed, still!!!

 

[Levi the Leopard]

Sorry man. I've lost 3 recently and although it was from different factors, I know how it feels. Watching them decline is hard.
