Hellooo Leopard Lovers :)

My Marley was just in the bath, and I was just looking at the top of his shell, wondering what all your tortoises look like from above! I wonder how different they all can be? And how many different variations in pattern there are. I think the top of the shell is the best way to view a pattern... So, I was just wondering, will you post a picture from above of your leopards shell?

Please? :)

Here's Marley in the bath, 2 1/2 years old.

Been a while since I've posted on the forum, looking forward to seeing how your torts are growing up. Thanks guys :)

I have one with her next to a tape measure. Just a size indicator. It's not a correct way to measure torts. But here it is. She is a little over 3 years old. ImageUploadedByTortForum1391657015.866539.jpg

No no I didnt mean it like that. Because i thought u were trying to respond to me asking LeopardTortlover. I am still figuring out this site


I was asking to see how big marley was compared to his/her hand so I can roughly see how big mine will be then

Thank you :)

The blank baby, Bella, has a split scute so my fingers are crossed for female!
The other baby, Elmo, had high incubation temps.
If I'm lucky and these 2 are female, I'll have a 2:3 group. Wouldn't that be wonderful :p


Just for fun I placed the smallest baby, Bella, next to my largest for this quick photo.. And to think, 7" Levi was once this small!!
