oooh she is sooo cute , nickname 'Papple '.and mega active compared to my 'ol girlies - been in a vivarium for years before adoption. She needs to dirty up!! , but she has firmed up against the others, hold her own and she is the one on the concrete shelf - going to have to do covert filming, stealth camera . I can not work out how she does it!! Crafty Patina !

thank-you Emma and burnt toast - love all the photos on SW ! considering all the others have been together for 20 odd years she is pretty special to join in like she does. she was a real shy be for years. got to be mad to be a Horsfield I reckon and Patina Apple does it in style.

They all look to be enjoying their feast there. I love seeing them all tuck in together. All of your tort photos are fantastic.

meant to say thank-you Row too, v nice of you to say !! (edited) mmmm do they all get on ! yes they do, they have all grown up together and with 5 boys until recently, but there are some scraps in fact one of them is named for it. Do they get on with the greenhouse ! mmm no - see far left broken pane !!! There is a whole story about the bread bin.......

And....left again broken pane ! they are nuts !! I honestly don't arrange them in a circle they all do it and little Patina Apple who hasn't grown up with them sits on the far side all the time ! She looks bemused at them mostly. Quite funny.
