Sid and Tootsie
Sid is my male Ibera, daddy to the babes and is sitting on his grass, he's much darker than Tootsie his wife in the second photo, Tootsie is in her 40's and Sid his late teens.

many thanks it took a few years before I got fertile eggs from them, Tootsie is an old wild caught tort so we are guessing at her age but can trace her back to the 70's hence her lovely shell. Sid is a uk bred tort who was rehomed to me through this site a few years back he used to chase his previous owners dogs to the point they were to frightened to go in the garden. He hasn't changed its now feet!.
