Great photographs. Definitely wanted to be 'in' and not left out by the big guys. I take it Slingsby is the smallest?

Slingsby is such a little poppet!! I love how they often snuggle together. Tonight Arabella is in her pot which is on top of Florence!! So Arabella is sleeping tilted upwards and Florence has the weight of half the pot and Arabella on her back but both seem oblivious and are sound asleep. It beats me how they get into these positions, let alone sleep like it.

They are so cute aren't they. one was nearly vertical the other day against a rock asleep all night.
I like they go to bed early too !

yes the smallest Jan, keeps going over on his travels which is a problem but I think he was kept in a very small area and wouldn't come out his shell and now whizzes around. CB

I think their little back legs are so gorgeous , with their little wrinkly socks on, it beats me how some people don't think tortoises are cute and cuddly !

I'm glad you said that about the legs. I just love the wrinkles too.
