Thank you all for the kind words!
To answer Ariza and Tom's questions. These three torts are siblings. They are too young to be sexed, I think. So, Frank can actually grow up to be a princess and Heidi can grow up to be a stud. The three torts get along very well for the most part.
Frank and Frosty have been very mellow and easy going from the beginning. Heidi, the smallest tort, is the instigator. She occasionally 'tailgates' one of her siblings and follows him around and nudges his side with her nose. Recently I witnessed her chasing her sibling down to face him and shaking her up and down at him. Other than this odd behavior from Heidi, they get along fine. They share food without a problem and sleep together every night. Perhaps this will change as they grow older.
Is Heidi exhibiting aggressive behavior? sexual behavior? I posted about her nudging her siblings a few years back and someone said she may just be a jerk...perhaps she is.
