They are seriously stunning tortoises!
I noticed a pink tinge on the plastron in that last pic, just though I would mention it. |

Thank you.
That's simply from growing, as Bev noticed, some of the adults are young and still growing. |

Thanks for the response. Are any of those that reproduced the ones you got a couple of years ago?

A lot of those were passed on but yes some did produce. These are ones with exact localities that I've had for a long time now, some going on ten years. I ended up with so many at one point that I only kept ones that I knew the localities of.

Smart move. How did you know the localities of the ones you kept?

I learned from who originally collected certain ones and others based on paperwork.

Great news Chris - and fab photos.
So encouraging to hear of your breeding sucess. Hopefully in a few years you can give me some tips! Keep up the good work.
