Oh wow, they are lovely looking tortoises.
Still pondering on where to situate my tortoise table. We have decided on the space for the outdoor enclosure, will about 5ft x 10ft be enough initially for any of the aforementioned tortoises?
They are likely to be moved in 2 -3 years when I get my office built in the garden.

I didn't realise Ptolome was 60, Suze!!
Great photos to show margies off at their best.

It's not Ptolome, it's not mine, belongs to a friend. He's a lovely tort. I wish he was mine.

That explains it then as I didn't think Ptolome had reached that age yet.
Your friend has a beautiful tort there.

He looks it! What a whopper he is and such a gorgeous shell. His colouring is really nice.

Nice foot Suze!

Finfendy - wouldn't recommend your tort is in the lounge if you smoke in there. They will breath the air (smoke) in so are vulnerable.

Good luck!

Thanks for the confirmation Jan, I think we have received decided today the tortoise will go in our 3rd bedroom where he is building my wardrobe. Should be nice and quiet in there for it.
