My little constellation of stars- BURMESE stars!- arrived last week!!!
I dragged poor hubby down the FedEx shipping hub in our town before they even opened, because I wanted to be first in the door!
The sweet lady working the front office saw us sitting in the car, and let us in 15 min before opening time! And she handled my box very gently! Thank you so much, Miss Robin! :<3:

Back at home, the unboxing commenced! Everybody got weighed and got a nice warm soak....

It's funny how you get a name for a pet in your head, but then when you actually meet them, that all changes. I had settled on the name Suri (Sanskrit for the sun, which is our star) but once I got them, the name didn't fit. Corazon has stayed Corazon (I call her Cory, most of the time) because of the heart on her carapace-corazon being the Spanish word for heart. Iggy stayed Iggy- it just fit. The one who was going to be Suri is, instead, Quinn! Don't ask me why- I don't know, other than it fits him better- go figure! :cool: The one on the far left with the blue dot is Quinn (largest of the 3), topmost with 1 red dot is Cory - you can even see her heart spot! And lower right, with 2 pink dots is Iggy. Iggy is the smallest, but only barely. They are SO ADORABLE!!! THANK YOU a bazillion times,TOM for enabling me to get my dream tortoise!!! and THREE, no less!!! And THANK YOU Markw84 for making such a fabulous enclosure for mine and ANY tortoise!!! Your SmartEnclosures are absolutely the best!!!!
