Make your house the scariest on the block by not decorating at all and turning off your lights. Maybe a small note on the door: "FBI WARNING: This home prohibited from engaging in Halloween activities."

This is heaven for my tortoise. She loves pumpkins and we tell everyone in the neighborhood to bring all their old Halloween pumpkins to our place after they're done with them.

Carved pumpkin getting a little wilty? She doesn't care. Munch munch munch! Delicious.

Are we talking like a box turtle or an actual tortoise that will live like 100-200 years?

Either way that's dope

Giant Sulcata Tortoise. Rescued from a highway in northern Florida. We adopter her at the (desperate) request of animal control.

The vet guessed she's around 20 years old. She weighs about 100lbs right now (was only 85 when we took her in).

We have a sulcata too, only about 4 years old but of course growing pretty quickly.

If I could go back to tell 10 year old me that future me would have a tortoise waiting at the back door to go out like one of the dogs, it would have blown my mind. I’ve always loved turtles. Even the ninja kind.

In my head, it's a giant Galapagos

[–] Zink@programming.dev 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The kind they have (sulcata or African spurred tortoise) is 3rd largest behind Galapagos and Aldabra tortoises, but they are common and cheap in comparison to those.

I can smell pumpkin spice when I look at this image.

The "welcome friends" sign while the path to the door being completely blocked hits just right.
