Hi! I have a Russian tortoise named Hermes. Hermie was kept with a group of torts and kinda suffered for it, he was calcium deficient to the point of severe weakness in he back legs along with a few other things. He’s been home almost 6 months and has since been doing really well! He’s just under four inches though and hasn’t grown since I got him. My vet said he’s a young male but probably fully grown. He seems small and I know makes are smaller than females but he’s on the smaller side for males as well from what I’ve seen. When I got him I especially picked him because he was so small (I thought he was potentially younger) but there were other males with him who were bigger. I’m just curious as I’m pretty new to torts! Thank you!!
