Hey everyone,
I just thought it would be fun to say how old (roughly) we are and our tortoises are. I am 22 yrs old and Tanker is anywhere from 1-5 the vet says. I've had him for almost a year and I don't know what i'd do without him. He's the first thing I say good morning to and the last thing I tell good night. He gets food before I do. He comes first :)

I'm 40, my Sully Cooper is 13 months and my Russian girl Ophelia is almost 8 years old. Love them to death, but he is very much a dads boy and she is pretty much hands off, which I don't like, but she's coming around.

Well I am 24 and my tortoise, Misha (a Horsefield) is I think less than a year maybe a little more (the shop didn't know, but he/she is only 6.5cm)

My oldest tortoise, Mi-shell, is around 70 years of age. She is also the very first tortoise in my collection. Mi-shell and I share the decade. I've had her for around 35 years.

Wow! Where did you get them, from zoos? That is so phenomenally awesome!

I'm 21, and I probably won't even be getting my tortoise until next spring (not upcoming, the following) so he or she is still 0. (-:

I am 22, my Russian, Ezek, is around 4 years of age. I have had him only for 4 months! He gets fed before I do and he is the first animal I want to see when I get home!
