hi I have been reading about all the torts and their different circumstances. I am glad I did my homework before I got my Herman hatchling. Tiny as he is named is doing very well actually since day 1. Active, eating, pooing, getting daily soaks, moving around his tortoise table, he even has a tortoise playpen which I put outside to let me forage around naturally and get that great sunshine. It's interesting reading and getting more knowledge about these little creatures. I look forward to being a member!
