My Big XXX Greek Tortoise.
 

This is Dotty my Turkish T.g.ibera. Unfortunately she was wild caught :( back in 1978 back then she was 10cm, now she is 30cm and around 4.5kg and still growing !
I've looked after her since I was 10. She likes being outside and for the last few years she has had a small conservatory with a heater and a basking lamp if needed. (which unfortunately is needed a lot).
I've had her for 33 years, she eats weeds and flowers, my mum used to give her the occasional strawberry as a treat and she also likes a few bean leaves, the odd bit of cucumber and she absolutely loves Poisonous Buttercups. (WARNING BUTTERCUPS ARE NOT A RECOMMENDED PLANT)

Wow what a beautiful tortoise and a lovely smooth shell.. Well done :)

A really beautiful tortoise :) you have a real stunner there :)

Lovely photos, beautiful tortoise xx

Such a gorgeous tortoise! :)

Thats a lovely big animal and super photos as well. Stunning colour and pattern. Whilst we don't want tortoises taken form the wild I think this one had done rather well out of the deal!

She is gorgeous, I particularly like the photo's of her lying next to the wood, I love her flare'd shell & she's pretty huge too isnt she? :)

What a gorgeous tort! Lovely smooth shell and great close ups :grin:

Whats her SCL? :D
