I've only had this tiny lady since October, but I ADORE her, and thought I'd show off some pics :)

Christmas morning, she started to wake up but then decided it was too much effort, so went back to sleep

My OH is currently building her her own tortoise table out of an old book shelf, she'll have soil and rocks and plants and all sorts of wonderful stuff in with her to keep her happy :)

ATTACK FOR THE KILLER TORT!!!!! I love it
 
CUUUTE! And, jealous!!! I can't wait to have a teeny tiny baby tort... Well, okay, I have my teeny tiny baby Leopard (who's probably quite upset that I'm excluding him, lol), but it's not the same as a TINY, tiny baby Testudo!

What kind is he? I'm guessing Greek--but I'm awful at telling Greeks and Hermanns' apart... :p
 
Haha thanks guys :D She's a Mediterranean spur thighed tortoise - testudo graeca. She was 13g when I got her in October, she's now 30g! Must be all that pizza :p
 
Woohoo, I guessed right! :D Aaah, so tiny! My "itty bitty" leopard was 120 grams at his last weigh in (probably even bigger now!) and was an underweight 45 grams when I got him... I can't even imagine a 13 gram tortoise, lol!!
 
Glad you all like her :D I won't lie, she was called Shelly at first, but it was just too cliché...I kept seeing so many other torts and turtles with the same name so I changed it! :laugh:
