Default Patience Pretty Tortoise

Thank-you soooooo much to Gordon making a dream come true, since 1998 when I saw my first Egyptian tortoise. Patience is doing well after a few weeks. Think the size of a grape, but much cuter.

Patience first bath in her new surroundings, didn't like it

a look around, then hide for 3 days



Little nibble



I will get over this because I am determined and they are pyramids !! she did it ! and back again but nose dived it



sleepy.

Yay CB, so glad you've put some piccies up of her. She's looking so gorgeous and such a determined little character.

oh Emma she is captivating. I have never had a tortoise you don't hibernate before either so all my Christmasses have come at once this year as I will have one awake ! When I bathe her my hand shakes so much because she only weighs 16 grammes.

Awwww....my Esme weighed 15g when she hatched so that gives me a good idea of how tiny she is.
You'll love spending Christmas with her.
