Thanks!! I'm so excited he is eating! Must be something about the dandelions in my yard ;)

I can't wait to see his brother/sister, Cadance! I'm sure she'll be there any minute! I will post more pics later, want to leave the little guy alone for a spell. Plus he's harder to photograph because my husband didn't get the plexiglass doors on the front of this enclosure yet, so I have to open the top to take his picture. I don't want to keep bothering him! (the tort, not my husband, I will bother him until he finishes ;) )

I hope so I am going crazy lol.... She is sitting at another one of their sorting facilities. she has been there for about and hour I am hoping she is really on the truck on her way to my house and they just haven't updated it on their website!!! How big is the RT that you already had before getting your two recent ones?

Yes, my tracking number said tootsie was sitting at the sorting facility for a little over an hour :( Don't forget I am in New York, so my time may be different than yours, its almost 11 am here.

We got Tina from Petsmart. She is WC, and we are estimating her to be somewhere around 5 years old. She is about 4.5"-5" in length and I think she weighed around 425grams the last time I weighed her, I'd have to look.

They updated their website she sat at the first place from 5-730 then the second one for 7 min. Which means she has been on the truck for almost 2 hours I hope she is doing ok!! Our first two are from petco they are WC as well one is 4.5" and the other is 4" I have been told they are about 5-6 years old. We where also told by the vet that one was female and one was male which I am hoping is right lol but I guess only time will tell right lol..
