Hiya everybody I joined this forum to get some support caring for my tortoises! I have a Graeca graeca called Toby, a Herman called pebbles, a sulcata called spike, a horsfield called popit, and today received an early birthday present, another horsfield! She's 3 years old and absolutely beautiful. But my mam doesn't seem to think she's a horsfield? I was wondering if I could have people's opinions and some name suggestions? Thanks! :)

Hi, Chantelle, and welcome to the Forum!

Yes, that's a Horsefield tortoise, or as we call them here in the states, a russian tortoise. She looks a bit older than three years though. I would have put her more around 8 or 10.

I thought she looked older too, as there is a drastic size difference between her and my other 3 year old horsefield and yes, it's quite a range I have! It was never intended to be like that, it just happened. But they are all very well looked after and get along so well, my eldest is 12 and iv had him since he was 1 year old :)
