Hi all

well i was kinda new last week but feel like i been here ages already, everyone has been so helpful and the responses have been so fast with all the posts i have made regarding my 2 adopted 2006 hermanns,
I knew nothin about these lovely creatures until i was asked if i would take them as the owner couldnt be bothered anymore, my sons fell in love with them but when i got them home in thier little plastic tub with sawdust in it and a big heat lamp clip thing i had no clue this was all wrong, after a day searching the net i finally found this site and after a couple of hours reading stickys n post i was like omg this is all so wrong how they been kept n fed

well im the kinda lady that if i gonna do it i do it right

so now axle and ozzie have a lovely enclosure and a healthy weed / nutrabol diet, dont think these poor torts ever seen a uvb before axle just kept staring up at it bless him lol, lots of piccies of them on my other posts in housing btw.
Sorry i should shut up now.... just very grateful to all the ppl who been helping me get everything set up right and understanding their needs, i still learn new stuff everyday from other ppls post and i hope to here for a long time to come and im sure if axle n oz could speak they would be saying a big thank you as well
