I'm considering getting a pair of Mee's and was wondering if people could post some photos of theirs so I could get a sort of visual on their adult size of about 17 inches.
Thanks!

Hi Yvonne,

Any idea where your big WC lady came from? She is a beaut.

Cheers

No. She was given to me by a gal who lived in Pittsburg, PA but was planning a move to the mountains and knew the weather wouldn't be good for the tortoise up there. She had her for many years, but I didn't think to ask where she got her. I've had her now for about 20 years.

Yes. They come and go from their heated shed anytime they want to...well, except for nights. I lock them inside at night.
