LOL, why sure! Think you can get used to Oklahoma weather?. Just think of ALL the tortoises that would be scattered out everywhere. This land is being given to us by my father-in-law...he's had it for 50 years. The soil is sandy loam, of course with Oklahoma red clay. There are assorted fruit and nut trees there, and I've had sweet potatoes grow as big as 15 pounds!! I want to turn it into a tortoise shangri la And then of course my husband will be inheriting the 180-acre farm land out in Geary Oklahoma when his dad passes on. There are no buildings out there, it's all been used to grow wheat, hay,and beans. Hmmmmm....I wonder what we'll do with that, LOL.

tortania Wrote:Thanks everyone . I am trying to come up with names for all of them based on their head markings. As Terry said, the colors change as these guys get older, but the markings stay the same. Here is one I considered naming E.T. cause he/she looks like she has an alien's face on his/her head



This is a pic from last year....maybe Terry has an updated pic???

Here ya go Carolyn..





And this is the one that the Brazilian produced.. check out the carapace/head colors.. [ sun washed-out the colors somewhat ]..

GORGEOUS!

Thank you Terry! They are real beauties!! I think I will have a really nice group when they get older

They are a wonderful looking group. Can't wait to hear all their names.
And again Great pics Terry.
