The big ladies are up and about after aestivating for the last 10 weeks. This is Agate, one of my junior girls. She's the daughter of Jill, my prettiest tortoise.

Each one unique, each one beautiful. Look at their smooth new growth!

This baby Tussian tortoise is available! It still needs to grow a bit larger before I can ship, but I'm taking reservations. If you're interested in getting a well-started, captive-bred baby tortoise, now's your chance.

Gold dot is going to grow up to be a stunning tortoise! They're all cute, but I like the ones with spots in their markings best.
