Thank you all for your help in the explanation of the movement of my tortoise's front legs. To introduce myself, this is my first tortoise but I have many other odd animals. I live in CT with my husband,4 dogs, 3 poison darts, finches, one dromedary camel, 13 alpacas, 2 llamas, 2 emus and it goes on. I am looking forward to learning much more about all of you as well. Anyone else in New England?
