Hi! I took her to the vet around 3 months ago and was told 7-8months was a good estimate so that’s what I was basing her age on. I suppose that could totally be wrong tho lolWelcome to the forum!
Your tortoise looks to me to be a young adult. Much older than 1 year old. My guess would be at least 7 yrs old. How big is it? Length, and weight?
Scratch that, closer to 4 in. Looked up how to measure her correctly lol She fits perfectly in my hand as wellHi! I took her to the vet around 3 months ago and was told 7-8months was a good estimate so that’s what I was basing her age on. I suppose that could totally be wrong tho lol
I just measured her and from the front of her shell to the back by her tail was about 5.5 inches. I don’t have a scale that would pick up her weight at the moment so I can’t give that data to you.
That’s ok! Thanks I appreciate it!I'm not sure how I totally overlooked your post. But I'd like to offer you a belated welcome to the forum
