They are beautiful torts...one will absolutely be the dominant one, eventually. Do you have room to set up a second enclosure when needed? :D

I have three and hope they are all females but if need be, I will separate whomever gets too pushy and bossy lol.

You know, if we set aside the side note of their behavior...it is very silly actually....if only we could relay to them somehow in "tortoise" that there is plenty of everything they want...it is comical for sure...:D

They are absolutely beautiful by the way .....

Whoa I'm having all kinds of technical difficulties tonight.
I tried to edit my last comment but couldn't so I just added another and it never appeared.
I meant to say...I hope they are all females and get along beautifully. But if that ends up not being the case, I'm prepared to separate one or all depending on their needs. And thank you, I am of course terribly biased so it's nice to hear when someone else thinks their beautiful too hahaha [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]

They look wonderful. I wouldn't call that bullying at all. The babies all react like that, climbing and pushing around each other. I actually like to believe they are interacting on a more social level which I see my adults do also in a similar manner.

Nice video. They look active and healthy for sure.

Cracked me up. They are beauties. That darker one, boy if he could talk, he would be telling the other one a few bad things. I wouldn't call it bullying either, because of the situation, but I would keep an eye on them just too be safe. That darker one doesn't hold back. Even looking the other one right in the face, too funny

Really cute. When mine are soaking sometimes one of them will try to climb on the other in an attempt to escape. One time my roommate walked in on my talking to my tortoises and I was saying "You can't escape hydration!"

I'll post some pictures I took of the trio this morning.

And this is what I found when I checked on them a bit ago. Watson cramming into the same hide with Freckles. Hahaha. He just wants everyone else's sleep spot.
