Fun in the Sun

My babies having their bath in the sun..

Free roaming in the garden (under close supervision!)

Temporary outdoor enclosure: (when supervised only)

They're growing well Becci. Gorgeous little torts.

Yes, they're all putting on weight now! Yay

I left my mum in charge for 10 mins and she lost Galileo!! I was fuming and flapping all at the same time! She had dug down!

emma_mcraf · 13-06-2014, 11:13 PM

I wouldn't let my mum anywhere near my torts!!
I'm sure your mum couldn't understand how she could have vanished so quickly.
Glad you discovered where Galileo was hiding. They're very good at completely concealing themselves aren't they! We often spend a while looking for Chester in his enclosure when it's time to bring him indoors.

She was too busy talking to next door, she knew there was no way they could have climbed out!! Though, despite her being the smallest, she's the best climber and digger! She'll be trouble that one!!

I think they know you'll panic and do it to wind us up! Chester sounds as naughty! xx

They are all lovely! Look like such a lovely group, and brilliant shells

Oh yes, he's a real character. Always on the go and up to mischief.

Thank you

They live separately as Darwin is so much bigger than my smallest and she was taking a lot of tumbles so I put Darwin on her own, they meet for a roam every couple of days and when they're outside so they don't forget each other, hopefully they'll go back together when the other 2 are bigger.

Sounds like Galileo to a tee!

They look beautiful Becci, what a size difference in the 2 that came together

I know, there was always a difference, but Archimedes kept growing quicker xx
