My little tortoise is very social! ^_^
And what's funny is he only ever poops on me. Strangers, visitors? Nope, clean on them. But if I pick him up... oh dear!

Our female RT seems to be very friendly and doesn't min being picked up our male is a little more shy I am hoping he gets better as time goes on we have only had him about a month and our female about 2 months. All around they are both sweet ;)

My russian runs right over to the side of the tank if i am near it and claws at the glass. She doesnt mind being held and will climb all over me if she is out for a run. My marginated is not scared but he is shy. he will only take hand fed food if it's something he really loves. I have had my russian longer though, so I have noticed the marginated getting more social as he is settling in.

All of mine are very social (except for the man hating red foot) though how much of that is because I feed them and how much is they like me remains to be seen.

Bowser is really social. When I take her places with me she loves to walk around and explore while people are all around her and petting her.
