Here are a few pics of Ralph (4 1/2 yrs, 15lbs) with my 3 1/2 yr old son for a good size comparison.

I am reminded of that old saying " it's not the size of your tortoise, but how you use it"

It's funny because in the last picture, I told my son to look up at me. Ralph seemed to do the same...bringing his head out and up some just for the picture.

I'm surprised, though, that my son still trusts Ralph. About a month or so ago Ralph bit his finger. BUT it wasn't Ralph's fault. My son was feeding him a flower and got his fingers a little too close.

My kids LOVE Ralph. They also love our RES, Girly Gunther, which we now call Frau Gunther.

I love to watch people's reactions when they are walking by. If Ralph is out of his enclosure, the people are just walking...walking...walking, then stop dead in their tracks. Not really expecting a tort of that size in someone's backyard. I had one lady tell me she thought it was a remote control tortoise. hahahaha

Debbie your pics are adorable. Kids are so forgiving. But I did notice he had his hand away from Ralphs mouth . Both Ralph and your son are very sweet and I especially love the last pic.

Ralph is just beautiful. His growth is nice and his color is spectacular. You should be very proud of yourself!
