2 Marginated Hatchlings.
Hi all,
Have wanted a tortoise for many years and finally my wife and I decided the time was right to take the plunge! We have now adopted 2 Marginated hatchlings, we were told they will most likely be female (due to incubation temps), but we won't know for sure until they are around 5 years old. As such, we have named them Tiny Timmy and Bertie!...... Will try and take some better picture soon! P.S. They do have a slate to eat from, but it's in an awkward place to take a picture! |

Thanks
Those pictures were taken just over 3 weeks ago when they arrived (surprised it's been that long already!). Here are a couple pictures taken today. Timmy: Bertie: |

P.S. I've been looking through the pictures threads and I believe their birth mother is a member here!
