Thats really cool! When I was younger, I had always wanted a pet tort (had no clue of species) and I always thought I would name him herman no matter what. When I got him 2 years later, I named him Herman! Then shortly after found out he was a hermanns tortoise!

Hello there! My human calls me "Mochi" and thinks I might be a girl. I am 6.5 mos old, weigh 49g, and am about 6 cm long. One funny fact is that I seem most agreeable when music is playing. That surprises my human, who thought tortoises weren't supposed to care about music one way or the other! I'm just at the beginning of what hopefully will be a long and healthy life.

Our Hermanns Tortoise Zola seems to enjoy most music too - from the Rolling Stones to harp music - the only thing he really dislikes is the sound of a flute -it gets him quite agitated !

This is our Gamera (named from Godzilla). Our vet put her about 4-5 years and is 1 lb 1oz or 16.5 grams. Weve had her about a year.
