Have fun tortoise sitting! Are you ready for the questions??

How long has Eme had them?
How old are they?
Do they have outdoor heating?
Is the garden south facing?
Do they have any calcium or vit supplements?
Do they always have the same diet as the guinea pig?
Do the guinea pig and torts ignore each other or interact in any way?
Do they have weeds to eat in the garden as well?

bet you wish you'd never posted now! You can't expect to post pics in here and not get loads of questions.

Is the garden south facing? i should know this being a fisherwife,but i have no idea

Do they have any calcium or vit supplements? nothing,no tort pellets just fresh fruit and veg daily
Do they always have the same diet as the guinea pig? Guniea pig and rabbits (more going in this summer) eat dried food and share the veggies
Do the guinea pig and torts ignore each other or interact in any way? Guinea pig and rabbits ignore torts,only prob,torts try to climb on them and tip over sometimes,but they do that to each other too
Do they have weeds to eat in the garden as well? she plants various things in there but i forget what theyre called,but mainly fruit and veg
