SUNSHINE & 4K DOING DIRTY & CLEAN IN THE SAKE OF NATURE :)
Apparently my Tortoises need some trip to help them understand little bit touch of the nature. The best that nature can ever provide to all living thing, so I guess they need to feel that feeling of get yourself into the mud, you know get yourself a dirt, be a little, be a self learner, see he outside your box, be little wild, but... not too dirty tho because I don't think they have to overdo it, they still a bunch of child ( parents instinc ) 🤣. So I need to give them the knowledge about this I know it sounds weird considering well.. it suppose to be like that but in reality back from the place they come from so many animal cruelty happens so I guess it can't be that wrong. Especially those who do the animal traffics illegaly and massively, I mean I understand they making money, but to put trade on them inter continent in a wood box filled with bunch animal taped & tied all body almost unable to breath.. come on it was DIABOLIC. Dont even bother to google it.
Sorry. Stray attack, it always happen to me when the topic come to animal smuggler. Again sorry. Just little bit snap from me.
Anyway this morning I do a little bit travel to the abandoned field (used to play soccer) near the city park not so far from the station at my city. I took them to see the outside world a bit and I swear to God so many people starring at me, 27 years old man carrying a Reptile cage in the middle of the public place hahaha, it stinks a little bit but I don't really put a it in my mind, as long as my children happy. Right guyss ??! ( Sounds like a desperate recognition.. I know😂 )
Actually this journey also tells you how to do it from "the dirty stuff" until "the clean stuff" , reason why because hygiene matters guys especially for animal who cant scream for help. So we have to be more intuitive about it, always focus in preventive way rather than repressive way, trust me when it comes to the diesease it cost you twice not forget to mention the time you going to spend. I know as a normal person we might be missing this point not because we want to it just sometime slip just like that. Its normal, I know you especially you guys #hivepet community won't do things like that intentionally. I know you guys are good heart people, thats why Im here with you guys.
First stop of this adventure was nearby the bench park. They really confused for such place, especially 4K he don't really move a fingger when he stpped in. Not like frustation or something it just like he little bit shy on new place. Sunshine in otherside like scrambling around the place sniffin allover the place and eventually have a taste for every wild plants.
Oh ya before I brought them here, I already make sure they are full, so they don't easily stressed out, Sunshine appetite just little bit way over the top.
Second stop was on the side of the field , I think it used to be a water or sanitation or irigation or whatever it calls. For me I checked the place twice make sure it dry enough to play around and no predator under the radar. The reason I chose this place is because it is a one way place, so I can make sure they don't go too wild and get lost. The condition make two of my Tortoise like doing some competition, and as you can see 4K really like that plant and guess what I allow him to have a taste.. just a little bit.
Here some sight for you, little bit touch of my Photography session, might help you to understand this two always run to me, hide under my squat. I don't know, I have a good relationship on every animal, you guys won't believe if I tell you this, not even a single dog ever bark on me , I swear it and I don't know why.
Third stop was on the side of the field, I dont know the name of this plant but I guess it feels like they laying on the bed so kushy and bouncy but at the sametime they can eat it too. I don't know why they appetite rise to the roof in this trip but they seems want to taste everything. Im not really panic or anythin like that because in their own habitat they eat like crazy and sleep like a stone, the only thing that concern me is just a small insects or predator.
Last stop was on the soccer field, like in the middle of it, this is when everybody start to record me and sh#t. I wish they never do that though especially without asking my concern. In this part 4k like digging the ground too much, I bet he just want to do animal thing and Sunshine in other hand he really do nothing in this spot but sniffing around my feet, I let them play nice in this spot as long as they don't go too far. And this is what happen..
Sunshine swim to the midde of it, exactly look like a walking island in scale of that puddle. It looks so funny when 4k come nearby and turn his face and walk away from that puddle, it looks like he say it to me like "HELL NAH BRUHHH" but Sunshine don't give a sh#t for his action and keep in the middle like for 5 minutes straight.
After all of that adventure of us I rest them for 17 minutes and after that we straight to bathing and cleaning session. Lot of concern to those who don't believe reptile hygiene is necesary. So I just go to my car, AC still off and I drive little bit fast.
As soon as I park my car on garage we go to the bathroom take the Reptile soap and I use a soft baby toothbrush to make sure the dirt flush away. P.S some people suggest you with baby soap, personally I never use it and don't reccommend you to do so especially to the baby Tortoise, so I hope you guys wiser in this. And also in this part I often caught them pooping on the spot and its totally normal. Just don't brush it too hard.
After that you have to make sure you keep them dry, I use tisse papper to dry them, you can use microfiber too. I personally use moisturizer and serum after I dry the down. Give around 10 minutes after yo brush them with tissue/microfiber, let them walk around to catch some air. And then after 10 minutes I brush them gently with the shell moisturizer (Tortoise Moisturizer) brush it with my fingger and then I use that yellow sponge to make it even. And then the last step I drop the serum to make it add more vitamin on it.
and then....
Diamond shine and Crystal clear. Handsome and Clean.
They like walking or a living diamond.
Thats it guys, Thats the whole story of this journey. I can't tell no more, I don't know what to say they shine so bright like 4K TV. Hope you guys get the point in this, and hope you guys find it attractive. Sorry for my grammar and sorry for wasting your time. Hope we can make it and hope you can share your Reptile.
Love you guys,
see you later
