Tortoises Fight, Basra "Wins"?

I think its not going to work out with the new tortoise. Despite having a giant backyard to play in they find each other and fight or have sex. I don't think its going to be possible to keep them together indoors without one killing the other.

Strangely, when I got home it was the little one attacking Basra. He must have had a bad day because matt found him upside down in the pond pit when he got home. Sadly it seems that youtube cannot handle the video which is weird because it is totally normal on my phone and I uploaded twice with the same problem.



It wasn't long before he turned the situation around. What surprising is just how long they can have sex for. It must have gone on for over an hour. By the end he was foaming at the mouth and drooling. Its so weird because they never make any noise accept for that.

Prayer In The Park

We went hiking at Niagara Gorge the other day and the Christians had some prayer in the park thing going on.

I can't believe how loud they are. There were like 15 of them but with their loud speakers you would think it was for a crowd of 500.

Why is having a giant loudspeaker not illegal in a state park? I mean most of the people came there to visit the nature and you couldn't hear anything over their bullshit.

Not The Chicken Wing

Saw this next to Ulrich's today and thought it would make a good addition to my roadkill photos although this looks like a distinctly feline creation.

Welcome to outerspace

The location is awesome. There are three stories of dancefloors. One in giant theater with a massive vinyl dance floor. It is so perfectly slippery. Then they have an outdoor stage.

Sadly, although I am dancing I am wildly preoccupied with several other issues. Sometimes I wish I had the constitution to be a heroin junkie so I could just escape.

$200 Later

The vet spent an hour picking wood chips out of the tortoises butt. An xray made apparent the woodchips ate impacted throughout the entire intestines.

Now we just have to wait and see if the cavity created by the removal if some chips will let the other chips out. If not they are going to have to try tubes which sounds very expensive. Poor Guy.

Even through a beach blanket

The reading selection at the vet has a
lot of info about worms.

For hookworms it says,

People most often get infected when they are lying on the ground at the beach and the larvae penetrate the skin. Yes, the larvae can penetrate through a beach blanket



For tapeworms of type Echinococcus multilocularos

Treat these tapeworm infections aggressively in pets, because if humans get infected, approximately half die.



Call me cruel, but if my pet had those I would definately consider wrapping it in a plastic bag and throwing it out.

At the vet with tortoise b

So the new tortoise has been straining to poop for three days. It's so sad to see it trying so hard. Today I tried to give it a mini tortoise enema with a pop bottle and was able to fish out a bunch of wood chips and a plastic plant material but I could tell he was totally impacted.

The poor guy must have had nothing to eat but the wood chips that lined the cage.

The vet just brought out an entire bowl if wood chips. She is going to xray and see what's left. Luckily he isn't bleeding at all.
