Hi all! I inherited a 50 yr. old CA desert tortoise (Teddy, renamed from Tank cause there's too many torts named Tank) last summer who's currently hibernating in his burrow. I fell so in love with him I bought two Russian torts too, Boris and Natasha, who have an outdoor enclosure and an indoor tort table. Right now they spend most of their time inside, but go out on days it's sunny and above 72, which happens here in So. Cal. all winter.
Anyway, just wanted to say I love the site and have learned a lot reading and reading. I have to stop myself from buying more torts. They're just so darn great!
Shall attach pics later-- when I'm at my other computer.

I guess that would make me 5, Sounds like you have been bitten with the tortoise bug. Hang on for the ride
