This beautiful girl has returned to @allegraf to be used for breeding. My crazy life and work schedule prevents me from breeding torts so why not leave her in the hands of experts. I always love visiting Allegra and Mark. The tortoises are all stunning and I'm happy she's back home.

She is not at all intimidated by the bigger torts. I found her sleeping on top of the group of torts! Whenever you are ready, we have those yearlings ready for you! Also you will get her first born!

Love the yellow highlights!
I have noticed the yellow highlights within some of the hold backs and some from other members who are gracious enough to post pictures of the hatchling's they got from me. It is a very cool quirky trait that I'm happy that turned up. This is a subtle hint for you to post more pics, Chris!

Well, I've been a little busy... Not to steal the thunder of Charlie 's beautiful job on the Oren baby... But we had a new addition to our family this year. He doesn't have any yellow highlights but I'll do my best to get some photos up of Rafiki and Mimosa soon.ImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1451071682.257114.jpg

Best pic so far! Congrats on the little one, he is adorable (even if he doesn't have the yellow marks on his head)!

How are those two from Carl looking? Were they twins?

No worries about the hijacking lol.
The two Carl torts are from the same clutch as the riplets.
They are doing very well. Glad they are both girls and can remain together. The enclosure is huge and will only get bigger for them.

These photos aren't recent. I'll take more and post soon.

We're busy no doubt but it's worth it! Thank you both for the compliments and for letting me jack your thread @CharlieM.

Looks like one of your torts from Carl has yellow highlights as well, Charlie! They look great!
