Default My hermanns tortoise is going to be famous!

I am absolutely over the moon
I received a telephone call from the editor David from Practical Reptile Keeping magazine to inform me that he will be printing a story in Friday weeks edition of the magazine, mother would have been so proud!

The Editor said he would send me some free copies, I hope he uses the picture in my avatar, it's an image of my late father and my daughter when she was a toddler, note the leather straps, don't think you can buy them today Kept her safe whilst taking her for walkies, she is nearly 21 years old now!

Awesome! What story is it? Was it the oldest tortoise thing they were advertising in the 1st issue?

Hi Ozgi, Tommy is 110 or 111 years old, David was contacted by another tort owner who claims their tort is 140 years old, however, he still wants to do a story on Tommy!
