Default My creep

Hi, here are pics of my 4. I believe they are all female and the first 3 are Hermanni Boettgeri and the last is a Hermanni Hurcegovinensis, but I'm happy to be corrected. Sorry, they're not the best pics.

Massey 155mm

They look beautiful. I'm no good at sexing! It's always a complete guess as in pick a sex at random!

They are lovely tortoises. I see you have rather a lot of bees!!
I'm a fellow chicken keeper too.

Thanks for all your comments. Maybe I'll have to get a Male HTB to complete the group.

Emma, I've got 3 bee hives, they are facinating, but the torts are much easier to handle.
