Male of female?

Jac

Not sure Mags. I keep refering to the wee one as her but she's too young to tell.

Keeping with the greek theme, if its female what about Hera or Helen. If its male what about Agamemnon:lol: , Spartan, Achilles.
Going to show off a wee bit now.
The greek for tortoise is helona = xelova
H skoteini xelova theli to trapezi = the dark tortoise wants the table.:lol: :lol: :lol:

Awww, he/she is lovely Jac!!! I adore Hermanns :cool: I was under the impression that you can't mix the different species...am I wrong Jac? can they all live together with no problems?

another cutie!!! Definitely have to go with a Greek name for this one too, how about Xena?

Jac

Fran, It's more for cross breeding than anything else although I do have a wee bit of a problem. The biggest one has been picking on the smaller. I thought if I introduced another he may stop. He's actually been going for her throat.
It's not worked, the two wee one's are fine but he's getting very territorial. I don't know what I'm going to do.

Alex, fancy a tortoise?

Seriously though it is getting a bit out of hand, he's stomping about the house I'm just putting him in when e gets cold. Ive tryed changeing the sand and soil to remove his sent but that hasn't worked either.
Any suggestions any body??

A few name suggestions Jac......

Deianira .... (Hercules 2nd wife)
Hebe .... (Goddess)
Pandora .... (1st woman in Greek mythology)

Hector.... (Trojan prince)
Apollo
Athos .... (alternative name for Zeus)

Jac

I'm going to go with a "her". I really like Pandora Mags, easy for Ceilidh as well. Thanks.

Jac, I have no idea what to suggest other than to seperate them. Good luck, let us know how it goes x

That's what I'm doing at the moment Fran. He's the one that bit Blue:? . Hercule's is on the living room floor at the moment but it's not ideal.
Darryle saw it for himself this morning and couldn't believe it.
