Happy national tortoise day!!! 🐢🐢 Love Sally 💜
Hello, would anyone in this forum know where I could donate a collage painting of a tortoise in the Sonoran Desert?
Thank you for any help you can give me.
I’d like to post the picture here, but can’t figure out how to do it.
they are closed so I haven’t been able to ask many questions yet. I dont know how old he is and i dont know how he was started, dry or wet conditions. I don’t know how they are keeping him now, either. I think I will get to go next week for an adoption appointment and I should be able to see their enclosure… they look like closed chambers from the photos I saw but they weren’t up close
How do I edit my name?… Turk is now Fiona and my ex has custody of her. I am getting the baby in the picture from a reptile rescue hopefully this week. His name is crush but I think im Going to change it to FreddyMac.
