New tort mum from UK!
Hi all,
I'm a first time tort mum to two Ibera hatchlings. They join a gang of rescue waifs & strays here already, the first two pets that were actually bought for me from a breeder. I've always wanted a tortoise & was given the go ahead for my birthday! I have new mum anxiety at the mo that I'm doing too much/too little & I've become aware that it doesn't seem common to have hatchlings this young (they're three months old) but... I've done extensive research and they seem like they're doing well, lovely firm shells, beady little eyes & voracious appetites. Ive become a tortoise bore.. Googling weeds and tortoise poo descriptions! I'll try & put a pic up...
