Are you on a road trip in Texas?Thanks, here are some better pictures of them. I’ll be picking up a sixth tortoise in Austin this weekend. I hope that you all enjoy.

Time to go into your user cp and change your location.Thanks, here are some better pictures of them. I’ll be picking up a sixth tortoise in Austin this weekend. I hope that you all enjoy.
Thanks. It is a great place to live. The wintertime is mild and the humidity is rather high. I enjoy raising my tortoises here. I’ve updated my profile to reflect Portland, TX. We are on the Gulf coast of Texas.Portland is a neat little place in Texas, I think some assumed Oregon.

I would as well. The parents of these tortoises live in the Houston and Dallas areas of Texas. Jay Russo and Ed Elkas bred them.I assumed Oregon. A road trip from Oregon to Texas to meet a breeder and pick up tortoises is something I would do!

This is something that always gets us in the UK. I used to go 35 mins to work and pass 4 counties...we always think your states are like our counties because they aren't different countries like with our "states". We forget Florida is the same size as the UK and that its a big deal to travel across several states!I assumed Oregon. A road trip from Oregon to Texas to meet a breeder and pick up tortoises is something I would do!
That makes perfect sense to me. Our states might as well be different countries. I am planning to drive for 11 hours and still be in my home state of Texas. I’m driving from South Texas to West Texas. Well worth the drive.This is something that always gets us in the UK.

I'd do it for a tortoise! If we did that we would be in the middle of the sea! Or in SwitzerlandThat makes perfect sense to me. Our states might as well be different countries.
