I'm just here because my Tortoise asked me to :)

I'm excited to be part of Tortoise Forum, and can't wait to hear what everyone has to say. As a relatively new Tort owner (2 years) I love hearing and learning new things, and peoples' opinions on them. I understand not everyone will agree with you, your posts, and vice versa, however that's also the beauty of a mature forum! Hearing, learning, and seeing what others opinions are, excited to be here!

Thank you KaitK! This was taken shortly after her adoption, so her shell is still in rough shape, but she looks so much healthier now! I will upload some soon I hope!

Hello

Ha Ha ! Good one ! Hi and welcome !

30!? Wow! I wish I knew how old Soso was! She is much larger, but I guess size wouldn't be a major indicator either way?

 

[KaitlinKeefe_]

no and if shes a female i believe they grow bigger then males

You would be surprised! Usually when I wake up to turn her "daytime on" she already beats me to the punch with a look that says, "Take me outside and watch me eat in this sweltering weather."... I just do what I'm told.
