I don't like the whole leocata, lepracata,Lepracuttas,Sulpards, and those types of names. How about something new, I vote "Savannas". After all, mules aren't called hordonks.

If we pick a name, and use it all the time. it'll stick. Nobody else has done this.

Very cute (of course who's ever seen an ugly baby tort? :) )

Interesting to see what they look like as they age.

LOL @ Hordonks ... I kinda like that better than mule.

I'm relatively new to the world of tortoises, but I'm not familiar with a Lepracutta tortoise. Is it a nickname for a baby leopard tortoise? They look so cute and pretty like most baby torts do.

I'm no expert - but I think they are hybrids of sulcata's and leopards.

Very cute! I would be interested in seeing the adults myself.

I'm pretty sure that JD was just trying to be cute with the name, but, I'm with you, Dennis. If we all start using the same name it WILL stick. Let's pick something with a bit of dignity to it. Shall we have a contest?

What is the goal to mixing a leopard and salcata? I am not being a cridict I am just curious if there is something you hope to achieve.
