Terry's babies are here!!!!

They came today, and may I say the pics on the website did them no justice! They are gorgeous!! They arrived well packed, and became active and eating less than 5 minutes out of the box! Here is a pre-shipping pic taken yesterday:


Here are a couple taken less than 10 minutes after arrival. I will get better ones later as I didn't want to disturb them too much after their stressful experience and took the pics through the plexiglass lid (that's why so red). I will get more soon!





The pics aren't the best I've taken...I just wanted to show everyone they really do eat right out of the box! Smile

Just a warning. Keep count fingers after feeding Terry's torts, they are eating machines.

RE: Terry's babies are here!!!!

The babies look wonderful. even the red pics. Glad they arrived fine.
I haven't had a cig. in amost 12 years now. (I was a hard core chain smoker of Kools) One of the hardest yet best things I did just for me. Not counting my torts. So a BIG CONGRATULATIONS Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin keep up the great work. Just think how fast that tort $$ will add up, that alone could be a heck of an incentive.

RE: Terry's babies are here!!!!

It is 13 years since I stopped smoking. I gained 47 lbs. after I stopped. I have lost most of it now, and really do feel so much better. I can breath.
Your babies are so beautiful, by the way...
