why is one of my torts of a simalar and age size heavier by 22g
my wife suggested it may be a female with eggs? i aint got a clue its the tort who is allways digging and hiding since moving them to tort table it comes out for food then goes back to its hole so to speek

All the pictures show looks like they are all males.
My females are 500-550g.
Males average from 240g- 500g
Please watch out for runny nose, not many people keep tunisians because they stress so easy and come down with RNS.

o dear
they are all geting jiggy with eachother.

i am in a bad situation here as i cannot sell them and get back the moey we paid for them as i dont have any papers, im after some horsfields so would this be classed as illegal if some one was willing to swap tort for tort?
i know money cant be exchanged there is nothing to state swaping species?

i will probably be slated here for saying this but im looking out for the torts as they all male and obviousley thats y there is alot of butting going on,they lived in a 3 foot viv with a big water bowl so the only had 2 foot to move and roam about not good at all i have em in a tort table now abd not as much butting goes on but if they all males i need to do somthing fast there is one tort in perticular who is so horny he is a problem i am making a devide in the table so i can lock him up lol

ne ideas how i can do this as i cant sell them and i dont want to comit a crime they cost my partner a fortune she got me em for valentines day from people who have now moved to spain we did not know they needed papers . if i get papers from defra chances are i wont be able to sell them on ne way ?

i supose its finding the right person who would be intrested in rehoming them but also to trade torts i know im naughty but no money is involved then,

i will be called the bad guy now but i have the torts intrest at heart, pm me if you can help

[SWsarah]

I understand, i see no harm is swapping as no money would be exchanged. But i dont think you will find anyone wanting to swap without papers.
You may think that tunisians are rare tortoises yes they are but not many people want to keep them because they are so hard to keep.

If i were you i would rehome some on.

[Andy n Claire]

they are fine they are eating and active not sleepy or out the feed gr8 but just get it on with eachother.

i dont know how to use the shelled warriors site do you know any one on there who would be intrested in helping me out
