Oh, no ! ! !:(
My back's actually behaving itself at the moment which is nice.
Does yours recover after a good night's sleep, or will it take a few days?
Well this has never happened before so I'm hoping it will resolve in the next day or two. You never realize how much you use the muscles in your back until you hurt them!

Also, I DIDNT KNOW YOU GOT A NEW SHELL CHILD!!! That's huge!

Yup, lovely baby SPLAT :):<3::tort:
He/she's in quarantine at a friend's just now, til I can get an enclosure sorted, get wifey on side and and she's safe to bring even close to Tidgy.
So I only see SPLAT once or twice a week, just now.
Adorable little thing, quite outgoing for a tiny one.

The new place that we are thinking of buying had 4 acres of land fenced in. I'm thinking of getting one of the larger species of tortoises if we get it. It would have lots of yard to roam and we could maybe convert the barn into a tortoise home.

Is Splat the tortoise in the latest issue of the book, or is that WALDO?

A sulcata ?
That would be great, I'm thinking more along the lines of a Russian, as I don't have the acreage for one of the big boys.

Id REALLY like an Aldabra but it would probably be a Sulcata. I enjoy both and have done the most research on sulcata. My Russian will always hold the biggest piece of my heart tortoise speaking. I love how spunky and fierce they can be. Earl is ALWAYS exploring and digging and climbing over things. He has been SO happy since we moved him outside into a bigger enclosure

And like Tidgy, Earl has battle damage that makes him unique.
Glad he's a happy chappy. :)
I'd love an Aldabra, but I don't think they're available here and I don't have the room.

They are quite the pair aren't they? I have no doubt that I'd tortoises enjoyed each other's company that they would love each other
