Horsfields im keeping awake
Female in the water bowl has been grow way to fast and has eye sight problems, so had problems feeding
Small one is a new rehomer last summer


Baby iberas
The biggest one is nearly 4 years old believe it or not, she is one of those hatchlings that hardly grew and i kept back





Pancakes




Ibera females im keeping awake
Charlote- when into hibernation years ago and woke up on deaths door
Tilly- well over 100 never hibernated
Tango- bad RNS this summer so keeping her up



Tango having a drink (my first tortoise)
She laid 7 eggs last weekend, but every morning digs a nest think we are on 6 nest so far
