I saw @RiversideBryan posted up for "Turtle Tuesday."

But, what about Tortoise Tuesday? Is that a thing? Cause I caught a good pic of a huge tortoise at the DC zoo over the weekend.

Oh, Waldorf. How are you such a klutz?

I know that Gopher Tortoises are cantankerous beasties, but this one in particular seems to be reveling in my frustration that it dug a burrow right by my front door. Really, my guy? REALLY?

Happy Tortoise Tuesday, and relatedly, Turtle Tuesday! 🐢🐢

Pictured here is Boudicca, an African spurred tortoise, eating her favorite mix of cherry tomatoes and dandelion greens.

This is Boudicca, an African spurred #tortoise who loves cherry tomatoes. She was malnourished before being rescued, which caused the unusual pyramidal development of her shell. She now lives happily in a university #greenhouse where she is well cared for and free to roam from biome to biome.

You've met my Bearded Dragon, Bubbs.
Now, meet my pet tortoise, Buddy. He is approximately 30 years old. I have had him since I adopted him from a rescue when he was age 9.

A different take on #TortoiseTuesday today. Bella shows me a lot of tortoise-related tiktok and instagram posts, and the cute side of these guys are well documented. I'm guilty of posting only the fun moments myself.

They are a lot of work, too. Marky came to us with a pinworm infection. Various parasites are common in little guys like this when coming from a breeder. He'll be on a bi-monthly dosage of panacur for the next eight weeks.
