I was joking.
I was saying that once it's obvious how huge the thing will get, they drop out of popularity.

Actually, I think the opposite is true. Their size is a large part of what makes them popular. That and the fact that they're probably the cheapest 'exotic' tortoise to be had in the US.

i used to think the same thing but now i don't a lot of people know they get big and thats the exact reason they get them. when they drop out of popularity i think it's because they know how big they get but not how fast they grow they think "oh i can raise it inside 4-5 years until i have a bigger house"
