I finally got my outdoor pen built this past weekend. I'll post the pictures as soon as I take some.

Anywho, I had some extra zucchini plants that I didn't need and decided to put them in the pen. Figured if they don't like the zucchini that the leaves would give them some nice shady spots.

I'm going to add some marigolds and perhaps some other veggie seed to the pen. Anything that'll taste good to them. I'd love to do strawberries but since I rent, I need something that won't interfere with replanted grass should I move.

Lemme tell you, within about an hour of being in the pen, they were all dug into the freshly turned soil/compost mix. The most I've seen so far is 6. I don't think any escaped as my two Houdinis are still there. There where 7 placed in there.

My fiance brought me a new one this weekend. A little girl that has some severe shell damage. Had to have been a car. She's very active and eating very well. I've watched her dig in and out a couple of times since Saturday.
