Default The Great Escape... Aldabras

I thought yall might get a kick out of this...

I look out in the yard and see this...


It's not the first time they've done it. There are two that seem to have it figured out. Ironicly it is these two...


You can see from this shot how they do it...


I got to thinking that I should note... I didn't put the tortoise there.

You're looking at it. I've actually seen them go over... tumble... land right side up... and just start grazing.

Thanks... they're all for sale... How many do you want to buy.

Very nice torts, and with all that space the others still huddle in the same corner!
I take it you breed aldabras then? What size are your largest?

Something I find funny here is they all look like they're all lining up for their turn to topple over. Great pics.
