    Indian Star Groooowing

    I haven't been to the forum in years. But here's an update on Luka. She's 10 years old now, around 10 inches long. Big, heavy, beautiful.

    Thank you all! I can't wait for her to grow biiiiiiiiiiigger and heaaaaaaaaaaaaaaavier :D It's so cool to compare them to the same object in each picture. I thought reptiles would grow slower :D @CL Moss - those two are insanely beautiful! I love Becky. She is so beautiful, cute and she has...

    Indian Star Groooowing

    Hi Everyone! Another year has passed and so I took growth comparison pictures. I love these, because it really make me realize how much she has grown. And Luka has grown a lot. It's starting to get difficult picking her up with one hand - she's big and heavy! So from May 2011 she went from...

    The End Of Pyramiding

    I observed this thread since almost the beginning (I think 5 or 6 months into the experiment) and I always awed and owed at these cute torts. I can't believe how much they have grown and how quick 3 years passed by. Needless to say, they are beautiful. This thread inspired me to raise my star in...

    Luka's Growth Update (Indian Star Tortoise)

    Thank you :D I love her to bits... don't think she likes that though. Haha.

    Luka's Growth Update (Indian Star Tortoise)

    She's far too young to have a boyfriend!! :p (I live in Thailand anyways, so no chance, haha). I'm not sure about the age. When I got her I was told she *might* be around 7-8 months old... which would make her about 1 3/4 years old. But there are no reputable breeders here (unfortunately), so...

    Luka's Growth Update (Indian Star Tortoise)

    I'm totally happy with her being a girl. I just thought the name would be prettier on a male... but I'm flexible. :D :tort: It's so great finally knowing! She's really the best pet I've ever had! Thank you both for your knowledgeable insight and explanations. :)[hr] Oh, and I can finally change...

    Luka's Growth Update (Indian Star Tortoise)

    :D thank you! I'll tell everyone that she's a girl. People (that I tell about my pet occasionally) have been asking me if she's male or female and always looked at me kinda strangely when I said that I don't know (and then had to explain that you can't know until they get bigger). :tort:

    Luka's Growth Update (Indian Star Tortoise)

    BTW, is it "sure" that she's a girl? Or might it still change? The short stubby tail is the major give away, correct? Anyone care to explain how to tell? I'm excited now :) I remember the group picture of your Sri Lankan Stars, Neal. You have some of the most beautiful stars I've ever seen!! :)...

    Luka's Growth Update (Indian Star Tortoise)

    Oh, quick answers. Seems I have to stop calling Luka a "he"... oh noes! I hoped for a male. Haha. But I knew this could happen and that's why I've chosen the unisex name. :) Thank you two, hearing that she's looking good makes me pretty happy!

    Luka's Growth Update (Indian Star Tortoise)

    Hello Everyone!! I haven't been really active in the past few months (one reason was that the tortoiseforum was blocked at my work... probably because it's linked with facebook somewhere ;) but not anymore!). Luka is doing great. Just recently I went home for 3 weeks and when I came back...

    My favorite Burmese Star:

    I can't wait until Luka grows up to be a sizeable 'speedbumb'... when they're that small they feel too fragile! But yes, they are the cutest when they're small and this one is especially cute and tiny!!

    I picked up River today!

    Sorry to push up an older thread... but I just had to say how cute they were!!! I love "Becky" as a tortoise name... so feminine and cute. :) Hope she turns out to be a “lady” and not a “lad” ;)
