Carol and Reggie say **HI** from Edinburgh!

**Carol** · 18-02-2011, 10:46 PM

Hi my name is Carol, and my two year old Hermans tortoise Reginald (Reggie) and I (and various other pets) live in Edinburgh and are very excited to be joining this little tortoise community!
I have had Reggie for just over a year now and he was about a year old when I got him from an exotic pet shop in Edinburgh. My boyfriend worked there at the time and he vouched for the care they put into looking after their animals, but I singled out Reggie from all the baby Herman's which they had and decided that he needed a good home!
Reggie currently lives in a set-up in my bedroom but I can't wait until I can stop renting flats and buy a house so that I can let him out in a garden whenever I like and he can have a whole room to run free in!
He's quite a little adventurer and I have to keep a real eye on him whenever he's on the loose and he often worries me by eating any scraps of anything he finds on the floor - dust, hair, bits of sweety wrappers, cat litter, you name it Reggie will try and eat it! I do worry about this but it just means I have to hoover a lot!
Anyway I have just ordered Reggie some seeds from this site and we're both very excited about him getting some fresh weeds - I have been looking all over for weed seeds would you believe they don't sell them in garden centres - who'd have thought!? haha I can't wait to grow them and I know he will enjoy them!
