Torts seem to be flocking to me.

Wow! Beautiful tortoise and nice shell, are you keeping it? That looks like a pretty large female.

This is actually a fantastic looking Russian. This has got to be someone's pet. Looks captive bred to me too. I'm going to put signs up and post on nextdoor to see if someone is missing "Her" IMG_20210603_175017433.jpgIMG_20210603_175020568.jpgIMG_20210603_175033697.jpgIMG_20210603_175045265.jpg

This little tortoise ate a half a head of romaine last night and she currently has her face buried in a bowl of hibiscus leaves lol.2CAA8E828A3D_1622809106797.png

If she was on your patio, it sure seems like someone knew where to leave her!

I think you were targeted! ?
People on nextdoor know me as the Turtle and tortoise Guy in town but it doesn't have my address I don't think, but none of my direct neighbors know anything about my Torts. So it is kind of odd.

Found the owner! I put some signs up at the entrance to my neighborhood and they called me within 30 min. Turns out this tortoise escaped yesterday! The plot thickens though, because it was living with a redfoot, who also escaped and it's currently somewhere in the neighborhood also. So I'm going to help them do some searching this weekend. Also, really cool to meet some fellow Tortoise enthusiasts that are neighbors!
