稍微介紹一下阿修羅,The Dare as "ASHIRA"


各位我來介紹一下我們家另外一個成員,她比我早進入michico家,她是個女生,michico取名字叫做阿修羅~!
I take the challenge of I Dare You All is to make a friend of another species , I like to introduce another species in michico's house - turtle. This turtle is "She", she came into michico's house earlier than me, her name is ASHIRA.

阿修羅原本小小的,大概才michico一個手掌的大小,結果七年前michico將阿修羅搬到房間跟我一起住,一年之內,阿修羅從手掌的大小到現在michico兩隻手都抓不住她,michico常常問我到底對阿修羅說了些什麼,先前michico飼養阿修羅五六年,阿修羅都一直維持著手掌大小,爲什麼跟我住一起一年後就像吹氣球一樣瘋狂長大,現在阿修羅又離開了我的房間住在陽台,已經換了兩次缸子因為她長得太快了~!

ASHIRA used to be a very small turtle, the size just like michico's palm (without fingers lengh). Seven years ago, michico moved ASHIRA into the bedroom stayed with us, only in 1 year, the size of ASHIRA from 1 michico's palm until michico canNot hold her buy 2 hands. Michico often asked me, what did I do to ASHIRA, why could she keep her small size for 5~6 years, and grow bigger just like puffing balloon crazy fast in 1 year. Right now ASHIRA leave me back to balcony, and changed 2 water vats already, because she is growing too big.

為何她取名叫阿修羅? 因為她的脾氣很壞,她很會咬人,還會叫,而且非常好動,而且胃口一直很好~!

Why named her "ASHIRA"(that is a bad god name in Japan), because she like biting, and calling(that's right, a turtle could has many sounds), athletics, and super good appetite.
這是阿修羅脫下來的殼...大家看看吧~!
Here is the ecdysis of ASHIRA, take a look~!

在michico飼養阿修羅之前,送她的人已經養了好幾年,阿修羅肯定超過15歲了~!
Before the man gave ASHIRA to michico, that man keep her several years, so ASHIRA must over 15 years old, even much more is possible.
阿修羅大概一公斤多吧~!
ASHIRA might more than 1kg~!

我想我跟阿修羅住在一起那一年,大概是阿修羅終於有好朋友了,她想要長得跟我一樣大才可以跟我玩,所以長得很快吧 !

I think that year while I lived with ASHIRA, maybe she thought she finally had a good friend, she might want to grow as big as I am then she could play with me, so... I might the reason that she grow so fast~

順便附帶告訴我的朋友們一件事情,今天有個颱風正要往台灣來呢~!

And, just a thing I want to inform my friend, there is a typhoon coming through the place I stay~!
ASHIRA doesn't have any blog, but you guys may visit here to know better about this species.

謝謝你的知識囉......

What a great special friend Ashira is - that's an amazing story!

A typhoon? Please stay safe!

Karen Jo said...

Ashira grew very big. I think she must be trying to get as big as you, Adan, just as you thought. She must be a very good friend. Stay safe from the typhoon.

I think that people really love these turtles and such. My sister had a pair of these and they'd jump off and want to swim to you, so that you'd feed them.

:D I want a pac-man frog myself.

Thank you for introducing us to Ashira.

A typhoon? Stay safe!

Gattina said...

Adam you really have a very special friend, but probably to slow for you to play with, lol !

Anonymous said...

Hi Adan, like Gattina said Ashira may be too slow for you. So what do you guys play? Or do you just sit around and talk? She was born long before you, 15 years, have she told you some stories?

Anyway, I also tagged you for a meme. It's about "10 Thing I Hate". Feel free to take it if you want. I'm curious to know what you dislike!

Dear Gattina and Gloria,

Believe or not, actually the turtle is moving very very fast~!!!
Really, next time when I got chance, I record a movie for you~!!!

Best Regards
ADAN~~

Daisy said...

Thanks for introducing us to Ashira! She is a very wonderful turtle. I think she is trying to grow big so she can play with you. And she is just like me, she likes to bite!

LZ said...

A turtle is a very special friend indeed. She is very pretty but I bet she's not fun to play with.

Stay safe Adan!!! Big storms are not good to mess around with.

烏龜會叫???!!!(驚)
我第一次聽到耶~
太太太神奇了!
阿修羅可能怕丹丹欺負牠,
所以拼命吃把自己吃得跟丹丹一樣大吧!XD

Sasha said...

Adan, Lynettea and I really enjoyed reading your blog. You have a wonderfully expressive face and are very tolerant. Why do humans like to drape unnatural objects around us?
What a lovely picture of the cat in the Chinese painting further down the page. Maybe it was you in one of your previous incarnations. It certainly looks like you.

How exciting that you have a turtle for a special friend! Ashira is quite exotic and lovely. I've never met a turtle before!

I love the first photo. Look at your expression! Priceless!

Ashira is HUGE! The tank looks too small for him though.

What a great friend you made. I love how pretty Ashira's shell is. Make sure your mama keeps you safe from the typhoon.
