Tootsie roll is sporting some nice new lines!!

Still has to catch up to Tina!

Tank is trying his best! He needs more to eat

It will work better if he actually gets it into his mouth!

And this I just thought was funny

We have three russians. The bigger one, Tina, we got from a pet store. We can only guess her age. Somewhere between 5-10 years old we guess. Tootsie roll is about 4 months old and poor little tank is only about 6 weeks old. They are shiny because they are wet .

Maybe a silly question but how can u tell if they are growing? What do the new lines look like?

I've seen the pics, very nice . Just stay on top of your husbandry and ask questions when you need help and your tort will grow nicely!

As long as he's looking great right now Ill be happy and pleased to know from ppl that I'm doing it right so far
I've only had him 5 days . And got him from cottage cheese urate stuff to liquid clearer very little white looking cottage cheese in this amount of time.
Oh I ask all the time lol. I was worried yesterday as he was lazy but today he was up and out most the day.
