Here is my family of four. The two in the center came in the mail yesterday. I like how each is a little bit different in color. There names in order from left to right Munchies, Onions, Peppers and Butters.

Very pretty (but shy :p). How big are they?



I know need a Nibbles also. Really do like Mushrooms probably go with Shroomies. Love name suggestions cause one day will have a dozen or more of these cherubs.

Great looking group, then again I am biased as I got my first tortoise a few days ago and they are 3 Egyptians. I will add another 3 a few months down the line. Yours look Awesome.

Ivan I hear you on getting more. Would ultimately want to have at least 8 to 12 myself. These torts are so cute they are addictive.

Where did you get yours from? Who's the breeder, forum member? I feel like there's only a few breeders here. Always curious who else is out there.

Yeah they are addicting, they're so small and take up so little space I feel like you can have an army of these guys.

Beautiful tortoises! I love their shape.

Is quaranteen not that important in the tortoise world? I hear it all time in other reptile forums just not that often in the tortoise forum.

I never thought to quarantine them I will next time. How long should I quarantine for? They are doing great though eating running about the table. They really took to dandelion flowers today and it was cool to see all four eating at ounce.

I work in the field of diseases of lower vertebrates quarentine is very important a minimum of 90 days for me 6 months is much better
