    Ike day is 45% eating, 45% mating, 10% whipping other males who try to mates shell. Ike is truly living a blessed life

    • @WillieWeed
      @WillieWeed 2 роки тому +44

      Did you notice that big heart piece of shell on the front of the plastern (bottom shell)? Its much smaller on the females. Because the males use it to joust and flip the competition over. If they're stuck long enough upside down in the sun they could die. Sometimes a nearby buddy will help flip them back over. 🐢💚

    I have a question; why don't you buy imperfect or waste vegetables and fruit. It still has all of the nutrients the torts need but at a better commercial or free price? I used to feed goats and chickens imperfect or left over fruits and veg for a much better (and sometimes free) price. They got lots more of the very favorites that I did have to buy retail, like berries and seasonal fruit. I enjoy your videos because I am starting to see individual behavior traits in the torts you always introduce. Did Ike try to bite the back of Gertie's shell when he couldn't get past the rocker horse to the lettuce? He IS the dominant tort!! I think the big torts are bottomless pits for ALL food all the time. After watching Ike and his harem, I understand how in the wild a male has a territory with a group of females and he defends it to the best of his ability. Do you compost the tort droppings? As vegetarians that would be some good soil enhancer for gardens or house plants. Almost as good as worm castings/better than cow.
