Hello! From Norfolk, UK.

[Cheyenne B]

Hello! I just joined this forum, it's been hard trying to find a good reliable one and as far as I can see you're a lot of lovely tortoise parents. This is my little guy Caterpillar, he hatched on the 4th of March this year (about 9 months?) and he struggled at the beginning but now he's thriving. We had to deal with a major power cut today and no hot water for a week now, so it's a good a time as any to find a good place to get useful advice and talk to others. First photo is the week he came home, second photo is a couple of weeks ago. I'm so proud
