A Bunch Of Babies

While I was away this weekend a clutch of Eastern Hermann's Tortoises (Testudo hermanni boettgeri) all hatched. Here are a few photos of them, they are BIG babies...Tongue

I have also included some shots of one of the new babies next to a baby Testudo hermanni hermanni that recently hatched.





Testudo hermanni hermanni on the left, Testudo hermanni boettgeri on the right.
