This past March, we got our son a red foot for his 12th birthday. Since then the whole family has fallen totally in love with him/her. My son named him Gamera (after the tortoise from the Godzilla movies - friend to all the children in the world!) and we call him Gami for short.
He is about 3 years old, so we don't know his sex yet, we just got in the habit of referring to him as a male. The lady who raised him since birth did an amazing job with his humidity, so he's got a very smooth shell with no pyramiding. We didn't expect that he would have so much personality, to be honest, but have been pleasantly surprised by how smart and sweet he is!
I have been coming here as a guest for answers to all of my questions, since we are new to tortoise keeping, and I decided that it would be fun to join and get to know other tortoise enthusiasts. Anyway, I am new to this kind of community group thing, but I catch on quickly, so I am sure I'll figure it all out soon. Thanks!
