I mentioned that one of my tortoises was small and Terry has observed it is probably not. Maybe Terry has seen lots of 3.5 year old Hermanns that are a lot smaller than 52mm and 35g. Must be a miniature US subspecies of Hermanns as we very rarely get them in Europe!!
Terry comments as well on the uneven appearance of the scutes and this is correct. However its by no means as noticeable as you might think from this photo because the picture that I put up was hugely bigger than the actual tortoise.
Please can I see the reseach data on the required humidity level for Hermanns as this is something I have been looking for? High levels of humidity can be fatal for Hermanns which is partly why we are trying to get them out of tanks. Although a word like 'high' has no real meaning; what is the % humidity we should aim for and how do we achieve it?
