BREAKING NEWS.... Toretto is a Dom!!!
While having a bath today, “She” revealed some special parts convincingly supporting that she is in fact a HE!!!! YAYYYYYY! I am thrilled with this news:)
Ha ha ha. Congratulations. Another mistaken identity solved. [emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23]

Congratulations ! A male one will get bigger.:D Toretto is beautiful !:tort::<3:

I know most all think bigger is better but I just don’t want the hassle of female issues!!! It looks like I will have two with the dark shells.. crusher may possibly stay lighter. Hard to tell just yet with that one[emoji848]

Last weigh in for HIM was 8lbs4oz... I noticed that he hasn’t been using his hide outside in the rare occasions that he gets to go right now and it’s because he outgrew it. He can’t fit sideways in there anymore!! [emoji23]
Good thing he gets his own yard this year:)

I redecorated Toretto’s inside enclosure today to give him some Variety in life. He seemed pretty pleased with it:) He is eating like a tank these days and brought in the new year at 9lbs 8.4ozs

Happy New Year
He looks terrific. And I agree, there is no free time with Tortoise’s.

Happy new year to you! I want you to know that Hubby is more involved with my torting everyday! I think out of all my animals, he likes them the best. He is planning on building Toms night box when he gets home in three weeks and has even made a few suggestions for my outdoor enclosure... [emoji6]

Eric is also getting more involved. If he gets up before me, he goes out and opens their doors to let them out. He checks the temps and helps me soak our big guy. He doesn’t like to admit that he loves them, but he does.
