I can’t believe we never shared this…
While transporting our large water monitor, Richard, during our recent move we thought he would like the comfort of a warm and dark tote for the car ride.
However Richard had a different idea.
It’s definitely a good thing him and Aspen get along so well.

Just a fun little video we put together moving all of our Sulcata Tortoises.
Some of the larger ones like Tort, we had to use some outside of the box thinking to get him outside. Because when we picked him up he would pinch our fingers with his back legs. 🤣
But look at new setup!!! It makes it all worth it!
Plus you are still able to go in with them and hang out with them!

Alright, it's time to get back to the good news updates!!! Let's get back to what this is all about... we'll keep you posted on other stuff as it develops, but we know you're really here for these amazing animals.
And what better news to get us back on track with then Douglas MAKING HER NEST!!!!
A few weeks ago, we noticed Douglas and Gomer were acting pretty lovey. So we added some grass clippings to their enclosure, just in case.
And it turns out we were right.
Douglas, all on her own, has piled up all of this dirt, mud, and grass and even tried some pond liner 🤦‍♂️under her heat lamp to make sure her eggs would be nice and warm.
We are expecting her to deposit her eggs ANY DAY!!!
But we'll keep you posted in case any one would want to come be a part of the fun!
