Greetings Here~Credits Thanks for the BlogskinRe-edited by The Cosmos Clique 1st Proper Outdoor Stroll with... Batman??
Sunday, 13 April 2014
Ever since Xing Yue's visit to the vet, his skin recovery process are on the right track. Also, Doctor Chua mentioned that if possible, we should let Cosmos bask themselves under the sun at least 1 or 2 hours per week for their health. Since the best basking time would be before 12 noon as well as after 5 pm, where the sun ray aren't that strong, today we decided to bring cosmos down to the ground level for a stroll, a proper one this time! (Previously we tried to bring them down only around towards 6PM where the sun was setting real soon, and as expected, we couldn't get any good spots for them to get really bask at all... )  We bought Cosmos down to near our residential area around 11am plus and... we actually had an unexpected guest! 
Batman Paying Cosmos a Visit!
Haha, Batman visiting the Cosmos huh? That's really a nice one though even if it's just a shadow. Anyway, we bought the entire tank down and left place them at a spot where they could get enough UVA & UVB from the sun.

Later on, we decided to let them stroll on the nearby public table top.
Here's some really nice and cute moments with the cosmos.

So, noticed that we had a lot of photos of Yang Guang and Xing Yue, now some might ask, what about Yue Guang? Does it means she didn't get to stroll on the table top at all?
Actually, she did! All three of them took turns to have their stroll on the table top, but as Yue Guang is way tooo hyper and really fast, it's really hard to snap down her moments (and we wouldn't want tons of Yue Guang's motion blur pictures do we?).
Next in plan, we are going to come up with something that would allow the cosmos to roam freely on the ground, yet without losing them at the same time instead. Till the next time then~ :)

Cosmos Clique is the name for all our 5 lovely pet turtles.
We found a Malayan Box Turtle (MBT) hatchling in the neighborhood park and 'adopted' him back home on 14th Feb 2014. We named him Xing Yue (Starry Moon).
On 15th Mar 2014, we purchased 2 Red-Eared Sliders (RES) hatchling from local pet shop to keep Xing Yue accompanied. We named the two RES as Yang Guang (Sunlight) and Yue Guang (Moon Light). The three of them started bonding since then.
On 25th Dec 2014, after Christmas visiting, we rescued an abandoned adult Malayan Box Turtle (MBT) from the nearby park. We named her as Liu Xing (Meteor). She is the only Princess in the Cosmos Clique~
As Liu Xing is too big sized compared to Xing Yue and we wanted to find a buddy for him, we later manged to purchase one from a seller met online, however, it turns out that this adult MBT we got from the seller is in a very bad shape (serious health issues) and the seller 'ran away' from his guilty acts. Despite the bad health conditions, with daily TLC, we managed to get our 5th Cosmos member back to health. We named him Yin He (Galaxy).
As we treat Cosmos Clique just like our family members, we too celebrate their birthday for them. Because we do not have any actual info of their birth dates, we have decided to set their birthday as the date they joins our family.
We usually refer Xing Yue, Yang Guang and Yue Guang as 'Babies' as they became our family members when they were hatchlings. Besides feeding them their Breakfast and Dinner in their respective feeding tanks, Cosmos' typical day includes having chill-lax (walking) session within a customised barricade that we built from scratch. Within the barricade, we gave them lots of colourful rubber balls, dish of water as well as some magnetic floating platforms.
On the weekend, we would aim to catch the natural sun rays before 11:30 AM in the morning and bring Cosmos down to the patches of grass for a 30 minutes basking session (of course, within their outdoor barricade). Cosmos Clique are getting popular with the adults and kids in the neighbourhood too!
