Regular readers (hi Mum!) will know that I recently suffered the tragic loss of two 5RMB turtles: Lambert and Miss Julie.

- for anyone new to the game, the full shocking story is told here-

Oh it was a bitter, bitter blow and for a long time I wasn’t sure whether I could risk being hurt again. But we still had the bowl and half a tub of turtle food so it only made sense to pick up another two turtles.

The couple of new little ‘uns don’t have names yet, we’re going to wait until they’re at least a week old before we christen them, but they seem to be in good shape. Here is a timelapse vid of them taken every 10 seconds. It’s non-stop, hardcore, turtle action.

Video is also here if that one doesn’t work

[Unfortunately, Kristi tells me they will either die, or cost me $500]
