So I get up this morning and I go feed the turts and I notice Cheech begging but Chong nowhere to be found...

After some looking I find Chong by a bookshelf hiding... I don't know how he got out... but I'm guessing he had to climb on top of Cheech while he was on the dock... He must have dropped like 4 feet! Thank God there's carpet...

I'm thinking about putting the mesh cover back on and maybe cutting a rectangle hole over the dock so it doesn't block the lights...

Stupid Chong... I hope he learned a valuable lesson today!

LOL
WHOA! That was incredibly dangerous! Did you check him for any injuries? Is he acting normal?

Here's a link on how to make a 1/2 screen cover:

Scroll down about halfway. If you're the least bit handy, and you have the tools, you should be able to pull it off.

Spike did the same thing a few days ago. Took us a day to find him.

WHOOOPS! Glad you found him!

yeah i'm not handy at all, but thanks anyways!

same with mine .one day my mom was home alone then she heard banging on the steps . she thought it was a robber. but when she looked it was my turtle

On not being handy, I'm not but I made a cover that's almost the same as the one in the link above. Believe me - I am not not not handy but it looks nice and works too. Did I mention that I'm not handy? The main difference was that I had the people at Lowe's cut the molding for me - they will do that for free.

So I'd recommend you give it a try. It will be a good thing for your turtle and you'll feel proud of yourself too.

...and I'm not a bit handy.

So let me get this straight SpotsMama, you're not handy, right?

Sorry to be unclear on that, but yes, I'm not.
