Agreed! I can't believe they hatch so TINY when they are such large animals fully grown--I think I was picturing them 4" out of the egg haha. Since Greeks are like, 1.5-2" SCL and only grow to be 8-10 inches as adults.
Beautiful tortoises---I look at all your gorgeous pictures and think of how peaceful and awesome it must be to look out into your yard and see those amazing animals walking around!
