Serious Excavation by Elenore

Not too long ago I caught Elenore hard at work doing an excavation and renovation job. The substrate consists of about an inch of coconut earth underneath an inch of Cypress.

Obviously she could give two flips that I was right there taking pics.

About 3 months ago she was in a tank with 3 inches of Aspen, and she loved burrowing and hiding. I guess she way getting the lay of the land in the new enclosure literally. :) And very frustrated that she could not burrow in her current enclosure.

She has since plowed up another area as well. It looks hogs that have destroyed a pasture. :D

Nice work Elenore. Now don't you go and mess it up Reinz! :D

My Hog Island just started the same thing. I have a flat rock that he likes to try to get under and makes a big mess moving substrate aside to burrow to somewhere. I think that it's a game that he is playing with me because I then reach in and smooth the place out (and sometimes that allows him to get out and explore).

I didn't. She put so much effort into it I just couldn't bring myself to disturb it.

Good exercise.
