Here is Maud and Clooney. Can't believe how alike they are. Another couple of months and we won't be able to tell them apart!

Ooooo...he's got a nice big dinner!
Is it right that you have to rub olive oil into their shells to stop them cracking?

Re: Double take!


No Mags their shells do not need any special treatment as long as they receive a good diet. You have to bath tortoises a couple of times a week, but although they are supposed to really enjoy the experience, Herbi much like the kids seems allergic to water

He has his bath in a cat litter tray and warm tap water, the idea is that he is supposed to drink, wee and pooh But he spends all his time wadeing from one end to the other trying to climb out
