Angie, Loki, Laura & Dozer (new pics 03/29/15)

I wanted to introduce everyone to our new girl. She is on her way now from Denver, CO. Here's the tracking # if anyone wants to follow her flight: http://www.ups.com/WebTracking/processInputRequest?loc=en_US&Requester=NOT&tracknum=1Z6ET1020195023418&AgreeToTermsAndConditions=yes We have chosen the name Angeline (Angie for short) which means "messenger of God." I will post some new pictures tomorrow but these are the ones we have so far. She is part leatherback.

Here she is when Laszlo brought her home from the pet store on Feb 17th, 2012.

Here she is eating a small dubia roach.

Here's 2 short videos. Angie's treadmill table game that she invented. Paul holds her tail very loosely while she does the exercising, then she stops & rest, starts in all over again. (Don't know why it came out in black & white)

Here she is enjoying her bathtub on the deck.

Great way to get her to exercise!
Loved how Angie swam from one corner straight to the other, then hung onto the side.

:lol: Angie is so pretty! Hanging on the side of her bath reminded me of the pictures you see of people at the beach hanging over the edge of a pool.

So Angie is still making up games, she is one rare beardie! And love the swimming, right to the other side of the pool. It's great you have the pool set up on the deck, sun and water, what a great combination!

She's quite the character. She usually swims much faster than she did in the video. Tonight she added to her swimming routine a little bit, she swim as fast as she could to the other side, then literally jumped to grab on the side then just hung out to catch her breath, then started to climb out so I'd pick her up so she could do it all over again. :lol: The swimming tub was a great idea, Loki loves swimming in it too. Great exercise, they get sun and hydration at the same time, all for only $14.99 that came with a top that locks on. It's easy to dump out & fill too. We plan on using it in the bathtub as the weather gets cooler so they can enjoy it year round & since our bathtub doesn't have a good stopper on it.

Thanks for all your comments.

I have been practicing with my camera. Gina was nice enough to spend a lot of time with me to make sure the settings are correct so I could get some clear pictures as most of them were very blurry. Would appreciate thoughts on these to help me narrow it down. Sorry there's so many.

These are all of Angie. Took some of Loki but his eyes looked like he was terrified of the flash. Will have to try another day.

I had only links posted here before but finally got them all downloaded into Photobucket.
