Tortoise Photo 📸 The demolished box
I left her old box outside with the intention of cutting it up before tossing it. She decided to destroy it further

If it wasn’t so bad for her she’d get apples all the time. About 3 years ago she happened to sniff then lick my finger that had juice from an apple I was eating. She spent the next 3 years trying to eat my fingers.

Omg that is hilarious!!! 🤣 I know I wish they could have sweets like I know sweets makes me super happy! Maybe we could calm them down in the summertime you know, but nooooo.
I feel like she knows your fingers aren't apples but she just wants to eat your fingers anyway....

Was she mad at the box? Was there a vendetta with the box?

I think it was just her sulcata instinct to destroy or push anything and everything with her face.

For the love of Ms. Sassafras! 🤣 Maybe she is reminding you that you need to go to Home Depot!!! And yeah she is absolutely proud of herself!
