I recently put them outside. It has made them all shy, but they will grow out of it. The quality of these pics are not so wonderful as they would not cooperate as much as the adults. They are starting to get very red.







I want that one LOL! So beautiful :)

How is that one that you got? A TON of color with a funny little shell? Would love to see updated pics!

Yes, he is doing fantastic! His shell seems to be flattening out some (he can extend his head out more) and his neck is starting to turn a bright red color, I will see if I can take some reasonably good picks tomorrow when he is in the daylight. The other one is doing phenomenal as well, he appears to being growing a ring of marbling, I will take pictures of him to. :)

Orange Julius Caesar- is that an 80s reference to the delicious Orange Julius drinks?!? They are looking wonderful! He straightened out better than I expected and looks like he will continue to do so. Mia is getting beautifully marbled and redder than ever!

Haha, yes. Love it that dairy queen sells them now, yummy. :D:<3:
