Hi there! Tort growth is highly variable. I have heard of them doubling or more in size in a year. It's hard to even give a guess though. How old are your babies? We love pictures!

Only few months. Eating good and active. Indoor enclosure but go outside good days often for few hours. Graze lots. Foods greens and lots dandelions and thistles from yard (no treatment in yard).

Pics, will try.

I have a ten year old that is 60 pounds and 7 year old at about 35...a 5 year old 15 maybe..
varies greatly.. But be prepared to have a large outdoor area ready for them in a few years. outdoor is best, and large and secure is a must!!
