Ok so Bowser got a page dedicated to him at a month old so now it's Peachs turn.I have had her since Oct.3 so it's a little over due :) here we go!

running off to another adventure
I am super glad I got Peach because she brought out the best in both me and Bowser.She is spunky and adventurous which made Bowser want to do the same.I couldn't see life without her and im glad she will be with me for a long time. :)

Update weigh in!

So they have grown! bowser is now about 104grams and Peach is not too far behind at 79grams.Ok here go the pics :)

They seem to be growing rather smoothly and that is always the goal when bringing up captive tortoises.A smooth shell means a healthy shell and a healthy tortoise.Peach did have me worried there for a minute because her growth                                 spurt was so rapid that her shell began to take on more texture then i would have liked.Now she is slowing down growth wise and her shell is beginning to smooth out like Bowsers.Just goes to show no two tortoises are alike no matter how similar the husbandry you just cant predict it all.
