My pretty rocks

[Neal]

Here are my baby pretty rocks. This is the only way I can get a picture of them all together, these rocks are the kind that move around a lot I guess.

This is just an appetizer for tomorrow, stay tuned!

 

[Laura]

OMG! the big one is drowning!!

 

[Neal]

He was, but he drank all the water up so he's ok.

 

[Edna]

These are the bunch Tom's 3 came from? That littlest guy has super-intriguing scute patterns. Pretty-yes, rocks-no way!

 

[CtTortoiseMom]

Really beautiful!!

 

[Isa]

Beautiful, I love the pattern on their shells

 

[Tom]

I can't believe how smooth they are!!! They don't even look like leopards... well not the ones I'm so used to seeing for so long. They look fantastic Neal. Weights?

Edna, these are totally unrelated to mine. Mine came from Cory and Neal bred and hatched these himself.

Negative, these are from my adults.

Top left 44g (8 weeks old), bottom left 45g (7 weeks), Top right 65 (14 weeks), bottom right 20g (3 weeks). So about 3 - 4 grams average per week...pretty fast I think. My sri lankas are keeping up too, hopefully pictures of them tomorrow.

hey neal theres something wrongwith those rocks,they have protuberances and appear too be moving.i suspect they may be babcockers.

 

[Neal]

Hahaha...John I'm glad you're here.

 

[ALDABRAMAN]

Beautiful sir.

 

[coreyc]

Looking good but I usually don't order appetizers so bring on the main course please my eyes are hungry

 

[Jacqui]

I called mine "pretty rocks" too. What I really think are pretty are the adults. Much nicer looking then almost all the adults I have seen. I especially like the father's markings.

 

[Kristina]

I can't wait to haz my own purty leetle rock

I'm with Jacqui, I like daddy as well. He has awesome coloration.

 

[John]

neal theres something wrong with those torts,every time i check the thread they are in the same place if they were pp they would have moved by now

 

[ChiKat]

Wow they are all so smooth! They look very well hydrated and healthy

Seeing your weights proves how hard it is for hatchlings to recover from bad treatment. When I got mine, they were real squishy and severely underweight. After 6 months, finally got one up to 65g and the other to 49g. At 11 months old! I'm way behind the curve. Getting there. Just need some TLC!
