Great set-up. Although it looks like you have a Split Leafed Philodendron in the enclosure. If the plant is real, philodendrons can be toxic. Looks like they'll be very happy.

[CelticRose]

They're so tiny! Adorable!

[John C]

awwwww! Soo cute!

Thanks, those are fake plants, the grass patches and moss are live. Today we had a nice warm sunny 72 degree day the kids enjoyed 45 mins in the sunshine and free range grazing, they loved the clovers hidden in the tall grass. SUNSHINE it does a body good..

Heres Javari checkin it all out.


Hey theres clovers down under that grass YUMMY!!


and Tikii says "HEY wheres my clover patch!"



CelticRose, they sure are tiny there just to cute. You should see them when its bath/soak time they look at you with those little eyes like awwwwww man not that again LOL!!

There getting the rutine down, wake up in morn basking UVB/UVA heat light on and strip flourescent full spectrum light on, tap on side of tort table WAKE UP KIDS its bath time, soak for 20 mins while fresh greens are prepared with calcium and vitamins, then out of soak and bask for few mins then off and running to chow down then wander around and back to passing out in the humidity hide hut. LOL!!

Thanks everyone they are just to adorable, after Cassie gave them there morning soak bath and then gave them fresh food, i figured i would snap a quick pic of them stuffing there little faces, i crept up slowly and sure enough they knew i was there BUSTED! They gave me the funniest look with those tiny cute precious eyes like OH NO not her again with that flashy thing. It was just to funny i was laughing so forgot to fix the settings and snapped the pic so its not the best looks funky yellow.
Im happy to report there doing exceptionaly well.

Javari is a real charecter loves trampling thru the water dish then looks back at it and then goes back thru it again like its a fun game zoomin back and fourth thru the water.. LOL!!

Gorgeous! I'd like to adopt a desert tortoise, except that it would eat all my Agaves.
