Re: Meet hercules


Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh - he's not a kitten

Not what I was expecting, but he's very handsome.

How old is he? Do you have other tortoises/reptiles Jac? I had a terrapin as a kid, thoughtfully named Terri !!!! hee hee

I thought you had a tortoise Jac but I didn't realise that you didn't have it any longer Hercules is a stunner and I love Blue's expression

Re: Meet hercules


Yes, I remember you having a tortoise but I didn't realise it wasn't around any more.

Hercules is quite a sweetie for a tortoise and Darryle a very thoughtful lad to get him for you.

Are tortoises difficult to come by? I thought there were import restrictions on them now??
