Love the picture! I adopted my approx. 10 yr old male EBT in June. I've dubbed him the un-turtle because he doesn't like anything the manual and websites say he should like. He prefers linoleum and soft blankets to snuggle under over reptile substrate. He hates the zen garden made especially for him. I think he doesn't like anything lumpy on his belly. lol. Am trying to figure out whether what he likes to eat is ok. I finally found a vet's website saying yogurt and cheese were fine.

A small Q-tip sized piece of rolled up prosciutto is a "bug". He won't eat a bug or slug or whatever. He seems happy. I take him out 3 times a week to dash up the incline in the backyard as he tries to get back inside as quickly as possible. The previous owner swears he was kept outside in a mulched enclosure. Guess he had never been offered blankies AND substrate before where he had a choice. Happy to be part of this group. Just found it today!

Sorry. Don't know why flickr.com is not taking you to the picture I wanted. I also have Nemo pictures here:

If you scroll down there are more Nemo pics and even ones of his zen garden.
