I call all mine torties! The babies are so cute and come running. When I say "Open" old Auntie tortie opens her mouth for the food to be popped in! When she is sitting on my knee, we have a chat but mostly I tell her "sit still", she gets rather excited if it is somthing she specially likes, banana is a favourite.

yes yes yes, i talk to my torts and my turtle! and i dont care who is listening!! (many people have ridiculed me in my own house, the cheek of it haha) its a good way for them to get to know you and to recognize you, i also apparently have a stupid voice when i talk to them according to my husband and his mates, they are so mean to me but i dont care because i love my pets!!

All the time sadly for me !!

I think I am known as that mad tortoise woman.

I call mine nick names, my female Edna is known as 'Edna Bedna' my male Ernie is known as 'Ernie Bernie' and my little hatchling my hubby named Clive, I call him Tiddler, I talk to the all the time!! They know my voice and my female follows me about, when I'm cooking she always comes in the Kitchen to eat any dropped veggies !!!
