I'm Pat in southern Nevada, I have 2 desert tortoises. I Have raised them from babies and they are 14 years old. They just came out 3-13-13 for the desert spring.
(I picture a whiney 10 or 11 year old who has been told no, he can't have something when I read your username..."but, mom! All the other kids blah, blah...")
Hi Pat, and welcome. Tell us, where did you learn how to raise your torts if not on this forum? Many of us actually learned what we were doing wrong right here. If it weren't for this forum, I can't imagine what damage could have been done to this magnificent creatures. So, please tell.
