Breakfast swimming with Yertle the Turtle!! Fun Fact: Painted Turtles don't have teeth. Instead they have rough, bumpy plates like sandpaper. Painted turtles have to eat in the water because their tongues don't move freely. The water helps to swish food around in their mouths, grinding it up with their bumpy plates! #paintedturtle #paintedturtlesofinstagram #classpets #classpetsofinstagram #petsintheclassroom #MrsAndersonsRoom #MrsAndersonsZoo #pets #turtle #yertletheturtle #turtlesofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B_m-DRjhG7L/?igshid=13pb3ncmigc13

Yertle got an addition to his tank today... an elevated basking spot and a night heat lamp. He seems pretty content. Good night from Yertle! #paintedturtle #paintedturtlesofinstagram #classpets #classpetsofinstagram #petsintheclassroom #MrsAndersonsRoom #MrsAndersonsZoo #pets #turtle #yertletheturtle #turtlesofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B_bPJCjhM5P/?igshid=1w37q4c7k7gq3

Poppy spent some time outside today. She was so happy when we found a patch of clover in the yard!! #beardeddragon #beardeddragonsofinstagram #classpets #classpetsofinstagram #petsintheclassroom #MrsAndersonsRoom #MrsAndersonsZoo https://www.instagram.com/p/B_bOHDRh6ph/?igshid=inazx5dw0cyy

The terrapins, Yertle and Mariska never ceases to amaze me with their basking antics. Mariska felt that all the wooden objects should be gathered in the corner so she could toast her rump. Yertle climbs to the highest point, in true Yertle the Turtle style, to get as much sin on his shell as possible. #russiantortoise #horsefieldstortoise #continuityoflearning #russiantortoisesofinstagram #classpets #classpetsofinstagram #petsintheclassroom #MrsAndersonsRoom #MrsAndersonsZoo #paintedturtle #paintedturtlesofinstagram #classpets #classpetsofinstagram #petsintheclassroom #MrsAndersonsRoom #MrsAndersonsZoo #pets #turtle https://www.instagram.com/p/B_XdlwKhYFY/?igshid=158p91o0gi8rw

Mariska starts scratching as soon as Mrs. Anderson starts recording.

Happened to notice Mariska was quite colorful this morning. Miles claims he didn't know what to do when he got paint on his finger. Apparently he forgot what a paper towel is! Thankfully it was washable paint and now Mariska is back to normal. https://www.instagram.com/p/B_H1t12hbF_/?igshid=1kjtpi7lq52ee

Zippy and Elliot are out and about this evening. Since they are nocturnal animals, we get to see a lot more action from the leopard geckos at the Anderson homestead! Tallulah is very curious. She gave Zippy one gentle boop, sniffed her a few times, then stared her for 15 minutes. #leopardgecko #reptiles #geckos #lizard #leopardgeckossofinstagram #classpets #classpetsofinstagram #petsintheclassroom #MrsAndersonsRoom #MrsAndersonsZoo #pets https://www.instagram.com/p/B_BU02IBxnN/?igshid=1riz8fk7lb0md
