Lazy turtle

I guess its easier to go over the board and rock then to go around it. Some of my boxies are so lazy, they always go over plants and rocks, rather then go around them, and they almost always land upside down.

Wouldn't it be lazier to take the easy route around them? Maybe they are just impatient! Ha! It's hard to think of turtles as impatient.

Good point Nathan!

I've seen over the years that they always go for the shortest route, and if that includes trampling plants and climbing rocks, so be it - lol!

Best of luck,

Bill Tracy
