I live in Southern California, about 30 miles east of Disneyland. I found this tortoise, upside down, in my horse's pen. The neighbors do not know who owned it. I have been reading many posts about tortoises, their care, how to identify species, etc. I have concluded this is a female because the bottom of her shell is flat. From what I've read, it looks as though I need to know her species in order to figure out what diet is best for her. She is about 13" long. Having an animal that hibernates and doesn't have to be fed and watered daily makes me nervous. We found her in December and put her in a box in the guest bathtub that we don't use. She never seemed to sleep.
