Yep they can be, as Sarah said our daughter seems to be the only one that gets it now. Did you see Alice ?

they are shy as babies and seem to feed in secret, as they get older they are fine eating in front of you.

it is so damp in their enclosure there are always 4 and sometimes 5 frogs in there, when I look at night there are hundreds of worms too.

I was thinking of the song Gary, ha ha
All Dillon and Eleanor had with them was a baby Brown and I think it was a Yellowfoot hatchling, although I could be wrong.
Their talk was generally about the Norfolk and Coe Club, so they didn't go into loads of detail about their own torts. Lots of nice pics, though I didn't see a Sully who looked like F*t B*****d...unfortunatley

Anne, they are supposed to be the 4th largest Tortoise in the world, their carapace can be up to about 40cm, so pretty big!
