Shells Tortoises
Been to Shells house tonight to see her massive collection of Tortoises and I was just blown away completely!
Two massive Sulcatas! Honest to god I've never seen anything like them in my entire life and how gorgeous!!! And yes, before anyone moans they have got a huge enclosure which is heated and insulated, fully equiped with lights and everything. Really nice to meet you all Shell. Thanks for having us and hope to see you at ours sometime, you're always welcome and thanks for everything. xx |

it was nice to meet you and your family ,and your baby sully was beautiful,i am very proud of my collection .
sulcatas have a great personality and a lovely shell, i would certainly recommend them as a pet ,but they do grow big so be prepared and research them before purchasing. |

"massive collection" so just how many torts do you have? and how many different breeds?
I have a small collection 8 Iberas and 2 redfoots and one day maybe when the kids have gone (and the trampoline) I will have more room so I too will be able to have a giant

Hey Shell, have any of your eggs hatched yet? I can't wait to see them when they do! |
