Default New pets Tortoises!

Well since you all have great cats and dogs....we have 8 tortoises. Todd is allergic to fur bearing animals so we have the crazy bunch.
Here are some of their pictures.

What tremendous turtles
.
. Thanks for sharing!

We were most impressed a few years back, in South Dakota, when we visited some giant tortoises

My SIL also says a tortoise makes a great pet. She's had hers for as long as she can remember

Wow, they're absolutely beautiful!

I had the pleasure of meeting Harriet the tortoise at Australia Zoo before her death last year. She was absolutely adorable. She lived to be (approx.) 176 years old and she loved eating hibiscus flowers.
