Just out of curiosity and to see how similar routines are what are your torts routine from wake up to sleep (bit of fun too)
Here's my torts routine -
So,
At 9am (time changes to 0630am on work days), I put big plate of mixed food out ready for it to be attacked lol then I sprinkle down the whole enclosure with the hose pipe, filling the water dish at the same time!!
0930-45ish, the first tort arises, usually, Henry doing a spot of basking, then followed by Hetty, not long after!! Then after about 20mins of basking they both go for breakfast and don't leave any for poor Fred. After they've eaten, there off to hide again for day at about 1030.
Then 1030ish, after they've demolished the food, I've then got a couple minute window to get some more food out for Fred who usually decides he's hungry at about this time lol once he's done, he will have a little wonder then about 1115 he will disappear for the day. I'll bring the food bowl in getting the next lot of food ready.
At about 4pm, I'll put the next lot of food out, but this time, Fred is the first to it lol followed by the other 2 a little later, again, fresh food has been put down lol (I go thru a lot of food) they all wonder for about 30mins then at about 0515pm they will go and hide.
6pm the fun begins lol there bath time lol I can take between 20 to 40mins searching for them lol I usually find Henry and Hetty first cause I know there hiding places, Fred on the other hand, likes to change it up lol and he pretty much is always the last to be found lol
After about a nice 30min soak, they then go back in to settle down for the night I always watch to see were they hide, keeps my mind at peace!!
On either the 10th,11th or 12th of every month I weigh and measure them then, again on either the 25th,26th or 27th!!
Sorry such a long post
