Hello from sunny London.

Finally a week of good weather here in England to get the tortoises eating properly. Three tortoises roaming the garden at the moment.

Hermie is around 50 years old, she's been part of the family for 25 years after my nephew told his school teacher he new a good home for her. Bill has been with us for 44 years, she is a female but when she turned up years ago Bill was painted on her back. Jamie is the youngest, moved in around 30 years back. The next door neighbour left him for two weeks while they were away originally.

Some pics attached that were taken this morning.

Tom

Thanks for the welcome.

I can't take the credit for looking after the tortoises all these years. I inherited looking after them full time when my mother died last year. I came across this forum browsing for information on calcium supplements.
