They went to the vets today and that's what they weighed, I don't know how but they have been growing like crazy, your guess is as good as mine it's whatever my mom feeds them I'm not home half of the time because I've been busy with getting things ready to move

I'm putting on my moderator hat here, so pay attention:

Let's all just take a step back. We have gone through 4 pages of helping Kayla to understand about her tortoises - how big they get, etc. We've done what we can. Now it's up to her. Nothing is going to be solved by being rude or making fun of what's been said. Let it go and just enjoy Kayla and her pictures.

(Yvonne takes off moderator hat)

Good luck to you in your house search, Kayla. We only have your animals' best interest at heart and we hope it works out.

Pumpkin won't eat his food if I put calcium in it is there any ways to get him to eat it or no?

Put less calcium powder on his food. A lot of people seem to overdo with calcium powder - if you've used enough to put him off food, you've used too much. Leave a cuttlebone in the enclosure too to provide an additional, optional, calcium source.
