I didn't want to clutter up Charlie's thread, so here is my pic hugging my Aldabras. It was getting very abnormally cold for our part of the country, and I was moving the torts into the snake room for the evening. I figured it was a great time to have the wife catch a shot.

I hope you enjoy it, and I hope there can be much participation.

p.s. I think other species hugging threads might be fun as well, even though I can't participate.

We'll give you credit for that Greg. Although I am pretty sure you could pic up one of those one month olders (just don't squeeze too hard when you hug them).

If I put my Sulcata in a Aldabra costume will that work?...:p
I definitely want to see that picture.

Thanks for adding your pic in this thread. I think I'll leave the smooching to you.

Nice pictures! I especially like the two Aldabra's Muddoc. I wish they stayed that small!

My tortoises are much too small to hug lol.

I showed my hubby that picture and told him that's what I wanted next... He had no comment, (but I'll bet he loves my RedFoots more!!!)
