So at 10:27 the UPS man delivered Zeus to my neighbor two doors down who upon realizing she did not order a live tortoise returned him to me :D. Here's some pics of him:

I soaked him for about 7 minutes then he wanted out. He basked for about 15 minutes then ate a few nibbles and dug himself down under a plant. I think he's pretty tuckered out!

I know, luckily she is a friend and she new he was coming. I saw the UPS man leave him on her step. He is very cute. He doesn't seem overly shy so that's good. Once he gets all settled in I'm sure his personality will come out:cool:

He ate almost a whole little plate of food, what a pig. I guess his journey 3/4 of the way across the U.S. made him real hungry! Oh, and I weighed him before he chowed down, he is 47 gms. I will measure him later. I want to thank Danny for letting me have him, he is so awesome!

Zeus looked as tired as your little girl looks in that picture. Poor babies they both needed a nap and they're both adorable congratulations.

congratulations on getting Zeus. He is quite the looker. I love the pic of your daughter and Zeus. She looks as if she is really studying him, hard, as if to say, How can I climb in there with him? :)
Or why is he in the bath? I't not bathtime. :D

Cute!

It's funny to see him sitting in the palm of your hand, so small.


thanks for the pics.
