Hey guys! Im fairly new to this forum and i got my greek tortoise about 4 days ago! Was wondering if anyone could take a wild guess how old he is.

He's about 3" long from the top of his shell to the bottom!

He tends to sleep a lot during the day and its usually in the food dish!

there is no way of telling the age without knowing the exact hatch date or month but i'd say he's still fairly young i'd also recommend changing the water dish to a plant saucer the water dishes like that have been known to make torts flip and drown

Hi looks just past the 'hatchling' stage...maybe a couple months old.
