How old are everyone's tortoises?
 

I'm getting my first tortoise from one of my friends in a few weeks, and he's a Hermann aged 12, just wondering how old everyone else's tortoises are :D:-P:smile:

Mine's still a baby. Will be two next june. (I'm a lot hungover and can't work out how old that makes him just now) Had him about 3 months. Good luck with your new tort. Lucky getting an older one x

4 & a half and 3 & a half :-)

One who is between 75 - 85 years.

Out of the other animals (and there are quite a few) our oldest turtle is a Red Ear Slider and she is 16, and an African Grey parrot who is 20+. Added those two just for interest really - they are all rehomers so we are going by what we were told by the previous owners/fosterers.

75-85 years ;o haha, what sort of tortoise is he :)?

To get a Herman's at 12 is a great thing, well done, do you know the history of the tort as well, has the tort been hibernated in the past ect.
Mine are all youngsters, 2 Hermans at 5 years, 1 at 7. And 2 Leopards, 1 at about 3 years, and 1 at about 8 years.:-P

Yeah he's been hibernated 3 times, just wondering (sorry I'm not really a Tortoise info guru) but why is it better to have one at 12?

I have 3 margies two at 11 one at 10 5 hermanns one at 8 one at 5 three at 3
2 spur thighs both at 2 nearly 3 and 3 leopards at a year old

To give him his full title - he is an Algerian Testudo graeca graeca - but called Percy for short! :razz:

I'm no guru either, like Guru Tugginmypudha :-P. Just saying most keeper's start with a hatchling or a one year old from a shop. To have an older tort is a nice thing.:-P
