Y'all have helped me so much with giving chunks my box turtle a nice outdoor home! I try and make it as natural at possible! She has plants a hollow log I found in the woods and a little pond. And a sun spot! She has been outside for 3 years now, including winter, and is doing great! I have had her for 12 years and thrilled to have found Y'alls channel!!!!

This fool making me want a giant tortoise 😂 I love the setup and uneven walls, I can see them spreading out and having favorite corners 👍🏼🐢

Such wonderful turtle parents. They’re very fortunate to have all the love and care.

Loved how the giant went over to say hi to the smaller one. Then when all the Tunisian guys headed right in to the shelter was amazing. What wonderful animals these are with amazing keepers! They are very spoiled. ❤❤❤❤❤

It looks like Micky was in 7th heaven during her spa shower!! ❤❤❤

Great treat this Sunday morning to see the tortoises start being moved outside for the summer . Here in southern Ontario it will be another 2 months before my Red Footed tortoise is moved to her outdoor enclosure . I can’t let her watch this video or she will be jealous. ❤

You certainly do work hard to give the tortoises their best and most natural lives. ❤ I can see the satisfaction and fulfillment it gives you to see your content tortoises and it’s a beautiful thing. The world needs more champions for the animals like you and Casey. ❤

Great video! Nice spring update. It cracks me up to see the dogs in the background "supervising"😂
-
Love to see your little herds of tortoises roaming free!❤🐢😍🌄💚

I've read that European Fan Palms can take snow. Are there any types of Hibiscus that can grow in your area? I'd laugh if the Tortoises think: Was the Human drunk when he built these walls!?

Welcome Spring!! Tortoises are happy to be living their best lives! 😊🐢

its like a tortoise zoo

You're amazing!! I also like how the video is made, nice shots and quality❤

Had me a little concerned at first when you kept saying you needed to build steps for the tortoises, relieved to see you meant ramp,lol. Love the new cold frame houses for the tortoises, what do you waterproof them with so they last longer? Chris, thanks for taking us along, enjoyed the mini class.🐢🌿❤️👍

Thank you Chris…this gave me a smile and a bit of a lift today. My beloved Husband of 48 wonderful years died at 3:10 AM Saturday April 13, and though I knew it was coming…I am still devastated. It will take time to heal, but for now…you are helping.🖤🇨🇦
