And another newbie for ya...
Hi everyone.
My wife, Candy, and I are new to tortoise keeping and forums. Been having a look around for a few days on here and thought 'why not they all seem friendly enough, may as well register and stop lurking about as a guest.' We purchased a 09 UKCB spur-thigh hatchling about 2 1/2 weeks ago now and she is around 1 1/2 months old and an absolute little gem. Our avatar piccy is of her, o her name is Hallow by the way, the first day we got her home. We have just about settled down with her now, not watching her like hawks anymore , our next concern is whether to hibernate her this year or not, Just worried about her being to small but we've been reading up on hibernation and have spoken to the breeder we got her off and we'll decide abit closer the time. Anyway that's enough rambling from me Hope we don't annoy you all to much with the same ole questions
