I thought it would be sort of interesting to have a couple "time of life" facts about Aldabran tortoises. Not to say ALL Aldabrans share these time lines, but it gives you an idea for when YOUR little Aldabran might show these.
BO and SO hatched 2000.
In May, 2010, they weighed about 125 and 130lbs and both 'flashed' (showed me their manhood).
2014 - I haven't been able to weigh either of them for a couple years, but two years ago (2014) they weighed 180 and 200lbs.
2016 - This morning SO was mounting BO. This is the first time they showed this type of behaviour.
