Thankyou sandy, it does look a bit homemade might be worth gluing a large 12" ruler to a piece of wood and creating the sliding things x

You can buy them from Tortoise World on the 'net. It would be a wonderful device if torts sat still!!!

Thankyou Charlotte, I took a look on their website, £28 (and it does just look like a ruler stuck to a piece of wood lol, but if I glue another piece of wood along the bottom, the torts legs would dangle so it would be easier to keep them still rather then me pushing them against a wall where they can use their legs to push against you and them getting stressed lol here it is:

I had one for Christmas! Bev. I did make my own which was fine for little ones but my bigger torts just stepped off it lol So far I have only used it to measure torts who are hibernating!! (& yes it is just a ruler on the side)
