i'm back on the INT0RNET!! yaaaaaaaay!!!

okay: so.... i've moved down to a farm and yesterday i found a box turtle. he was so cute... i made him a huge out door pen and with a little pool and a hidding place under some rocks. i tried to feed him some lettuce and some cherry tomatoes... but he was small enough that he squeezed through the wire mesh of his pen and ran away.

my turtle ran away.

... that was a DAMN fast turtle.

Maybe you should have fed him pizza, then he might have stuck around

*Mars-Chan* · 07-05-2003, 01:34 PM

Are you SURE it wasn't Mike?!?

*Raven* · 07-05-2003, 03:03 PM

*kyabetsu* · 07-05-2003, 03:30 PM

well... since it went over the wall on it's own... actually, THROUGH the wall, it MIGHT come back... but it's hardly likely to STAY.

*kya attempts to teach the turtle to "sit" and "Stay"*
kya: i gave up on FETCH....

and since he fit in the palm of my hand and had a bit of trouble getting out of the foot high fenced in enclosure.... i'm prrrrreeeettty sure it wasn't mike. oh, and he looked like this:

oooo...
but there ARE a pair of Snapping Turtle Nests in the banks of the trail from the barn to the north meadow!

AND! AND AND AND AAAAND!!!

i think i SAW one of the parents! heh. talk about RAPH'S ROOTS! dang... ANGRY turtle... a foot and a half of snapping turtle.... alligator lookin' tail, jagged back end of shell, BIIIIIIG scary beak...
looked like this:

*lol* Mebbe he was hot too. Wanted to find a cool forest cover to dig up worms. Most boxies luuuve worms, they do! Not to memtion he prolly had a wife and kids.

Mmm. nice snapper! Friendly snapper... be a good snapper!

*sniff sniff* not mine. it just smells like ... dirt and dogs... and there's an occasional whiff of goat. We grow strawberries and day lilies and Labrador Retriever Dogs.
