Id like to introduce you to my stan-the-man.

Those are some pretty long toe nails on Sir Stanley Humphrey Windsor, Esq!

Looks like he needs to get out and do some laps on hard dirt.

Love the name! The folks here on the forum are just so good at taking pictures and naming your torts. Stan-the-man is a happy-looking tortoise.

Thanks for sharing!

Yvonne

Yes, torts nails and beaks can be trimmed but like a dog they do have a quick and if you are not sure what you are doing I suggest you let your vet show you what and how much to take off. Looks like he may need a beak trim also? Hard to tell from the pics. But he looks like a happy, happy tort.
