The Grass is Always Greener....

Gigantica takes a look...tries and escape...gets his body out...but his shell is too big!!!!

Bashful makes his escape but then changes his mind!

The turtle was the first to find the one hole in the box. But she couldn't fit through.
I think she told the hermies because they tried to escape too...only bashful was successful but soon realized it was better inside!

Fun in Class!

I take my turtle to school to play with the hermit crabs. Here they are consulting in the corner!
The kids make lego structures for them, like bridges, tunnels and walls! We even had a slide that Speedy seemed to enjoy!

The turtle and 3 hermit crabs basically ignore each other while climbing over each other!



This is Gigantica...he/she is 3 times as big as bashful and speedy!


At one point they all tried to bury themselves in the dirt but the turtle dug under them all to oust them! She is pushy!!!!! Left to right...Gigantica, Speedy, Bashful and the turtle!

LOOK AT THIS!!!!

It actually looks even smaller in person. I scraped the scab off. eeeeew, I know but it has to be done!...And, yes, she is saddled! I didn't ride her yet...but I'm working on it. It was a beautiful day. And as I drove in the drive, she called to me! I love it!
