Here is the Female Desert tortoise "Vanolla" I picked up from abeck today.
She will be housed here for a while. I know her eyes in some photos look a bit swollen but I didn’t see any problem. They are clear and bright and her nose is dry. I will be contacting my chapter CTTC to set up a health checkup for her. Plus keep a close eye on her. She is in quaranteen in her own outside habitat. She will get to go into a seperate part of the yard not used by any torts and be able to graze in the evenings and weekends when I am home and can watch her.
She has a great appetite. She was nibbling on everything; she’s friendly and looks to be in generally good health. Her name at least with me remains "Vanolla".
Her enclosure
A quick dip to cool off.
A light snack of sunflowers
Now this is a Girl with ATTITUDE
