Love this!View attachment 377780Getting a tortoise has been the best thing I’ve done in a long time!!! Being able to take care of him has brought me so much fulfillment! My dad passed away last year and this almost makes me feel like I have a purpose again. I’m thinking of naming him either Bernie the Burmese Star (because my dad’s dogs name was Bernie) or Tex because I’m from Texas. I never thought I’d love a reptile - but here I am! Getting him has truly been such a light spot in my life. 🤍🤍🤍 I have had so much fun setting up and building his enclosure. I have always loved gardening but now being able to incorporate gardening and my tortoise it seriously has brought me so much joy, happiness, and peace. I am so thankful for my tort and this forum! You guys are awesome!
Thank you!!I like the name Bernie. Your tortoise looks like a Bernie. Very cute
I vote for Bernie the Burmese. I have a Leonora the Leopard so I might be biased. LolView attachment 377780Getting a tortoise has been the best thing I’ve done in a long time!!!
