Not a sully owner, but a cheerful wave from Washtenaw! We have leopard tort. Rumps is 8" and has a 12' x 12' pen outside. He comes in the evening. Winter - we are trying to find a way to maximize is roaming area in the house. ~Marka 3.0.0 offspring 2.2 nieces and nephews 1.0.0 leopard...

Awwww..... I was hoping to not add to his problem :( Still, I am loving him and trying to spoil him. ~Marka 3.0.0 offspring 2.2 nieces and nephews 1.0.0 leopard tortoise "Rumple" 0.0.1 cherry head redfoot arriving soon

Rumple, our 7 yr old leopard, has been home with us for just over a month now. He's put on ~80g. We can see new growth lines. Are they supposed to be slightly raised? Or is it pyramiding? ~Marka 3.0.0 offspring 2.2 nieces and nephews 1.0.0 leopard tortoise "Rumple" 0.0.1 cherry head...

Welcome!

Welcome!!

I love the cove. I am going to do a similar thing with paver/wall stones

I foresee a meetup! I was bemoaning the fact that we don't have anything like the CTTC here in another thread. Maybe we can start the MTEAPS (Michigan Tortoise Enthusist and Anti-Pyramiding Society) or maybe just call it the cult of Tom ;). Lol

They are some awesome looking torts
