Well I got a message from a friend that someone was looking to downsize and wanted to place 4 of his Russian Torts with someone he knew. Well the fella didnt know me, but with the recommendation from my friend (asst reptile curator at a zoo) I will be meeting up and picking up 4 Russians this coming Sunday! YAY! Gotta love free Torts! *happy dance*

Yup yup! I found out that 2 of the girls are probably 6-7 years old, and one male and one female are about 2.5 years old. Not bad at all.



Are you going to Tinley? Tracy are you going to drive down to Tinley? Jeff Gee is going to be there as well as the World Chelonian Trust folks. Also the folks from reptigreens.com. That will give me a chance to check out their stuff too.

hehe I finally named the Hermann's trio too. Horatio, Hawthorne and Halle. :D My girlfriend down in AR that breeds dogs had to help me, she suggested all H names since they are Hermanns. I may go with all R names for the Russian 4. lol Will be easier to remember. I may name the sulcata Bones. :)

Oopps! I must have saw Saturday on my computer's time box and knew it was night out and moved ahead a day. Okay so I am senile.:D

So as I write this you must only have a few hours to go yet. I can imagine time is worse then a tortoise on a cold fall morning slowly trying to get moving, as the sun is just barely inching toward his drowsy shell.:rolleyes: Wondering how often your checking your watch these last few hours.:D
