Kinda weird, no tortoises!
That's cause they're inside that barn; it's just too darn cold, brrrr...

Aww...thank you Greg!

Hey Greg, thanks so much for your commitment to posting photos of your amazing herd. I check everyday for updates and love to pour over them. What a remarkable collection of photos and information.
Over on your "SLEEPING BEAUTY" thread, I would still love to know her approximate length and weight? Those photos of her are gorgeous and i can't get a good sense of scale - is she in the 20" range? 100 lbs? what a perfect high dome! love it!
Thanks, Ben

Wow.....I can't even say anything other than "WOW". Gorgeous, simply gorgeous babies.
They seem to grow pretty quick, but not quite the rate Sulcata grow...that is my observation...do you agree?
And how are those Sullies you have doing? [GRINNING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]

Thanks Greg for the info on Norma! She is a looker! One last question - how old is she?

* Honestly, we are unsure! She is very old, we are almost certain that all of our breeders exceed one hundred years of age. She is by far our most skittish and elusive female, however produced beautiful healthy babies!
Mazuri day & new bowls!
