Default Sad Day

Hi,
Found one of tortoises had died today- tucked away in her hutch.
Got her in 1969 when she was a young adult- called her Timmy as it only became obvious to her sex later on! Had quite a few eggs over the years though only got three to hatch in 1987.

This year she had been more sluggish but still active. But feel I could/should have done more for her. She was a gentle soul....

How very sad, I'm sure you did all you could for her Bill, and you know, she could have been quite old...

Thoughts are with you, RIP torty x
