That picture of Tourette makes me smile. It looks like you caught her in the middle of doing something she's not supposed to because she has that "oh crap" face.

Apparently Tank wanted me off the computer.
This is how he got my attention.
He's such a smart turtle.

Hmm... seems more like he wanted to warm up and Im sure the bottom of that notebook is nice and toasty.

Perhaps but I dont doubt Steves take on it. Tank is a heck of a smart turtle.

Good observation but no. Not my Tourette

Perhaps it's a win-win; Tank gets to steal heat from the laptop and gets Steve's attention at the same time That's what my cat does... Only he likes to lay on the keyboard and send gibberish emails to people.

I have to share what I saw today.

I had just finished feeding a group and still had a night crawler in my hand so I looked in on my T.s.concinnus group. I opened the enclosure and a wonderful female came shooting out of the hide. I offered the worm and she grabbed it. She started to swallow it immediately but then stopped suddenly. It appeared she was having second thoughts about what she had grabbed.
As she was deciding what to do, the worm started moving forward to avoid those little needle teeth.
Now is when she decided she didn't want the worm and started gagging. She looked like a baby taking its first bite of baby food pea soup(if you're not a parent you probably have no idea what I'm talking about) The more she gagged the faster the worm moved forward.
This whole thing only took a few moments but I was rolling.
She finally got the worm out, gave me a bad look and returned to her hide.
They are so entertaining.

That is funny! I can just picture that face and the head going back and forth.

No back and forth movement at all. She just kept opening her mouth wider and wider.
It looked like she was hoping the worm would just fall out.

Funny.

Comedy gold.
