Been lurking a while...

Hi, everyone!
I have been lurking around this forum a while and decided it was time say hello.This is Max, short for Maxine she's probably a girl.

She hatched on 4/15/2013, the last time I weighed her she was 121 grams and 3.2" long. We got her from Vicki Hale at the beginning of July and could not be happier. I have kept Iguana's, a Monitor, and all sorts of fresh water fish but Max is by far the "smartest" reptile I've had. My wife even made the comment "she's like a little dog" because she is so outgoing. I do have a few questions but I'll put those in another post.

Thanks in advance for everyone's help, and Hello!

Hello,and Welcome. Glad you decided to join in on all the fun, learning and sharing. Your RF is beautiful.

She's beautiful! Welcome to a wonderful and welcoming place.

Yep its a pretty good tortoise forum, she will probably be even more outgoing as she gets bigger and you will probably have another tortoise by then or more

Yah, first one came in May...now it's October and I have 6 tortoises in my house.
They are totally like potato chips.

LOL, I know... I had to uninstall the craigslist app from my phone....so many torts that need a better home there. Sadly I can only keep one for now.


Thanks everyone

Welcome. I got one in May, another in August, and now talking about a third one. My s/o says not now. So I'll wait to get the next one, but one day there will be a third.
