As I have re-homed a couple of tortoises in 2009 I just wanted to let the TPG know that the torts survived hibernation. I favour the "box in the loft" method and all my darlings survived. They were all hibernated for 10/11 weeks.
I re-homed Nigel from Runcorn and Toby .... it was Toby's first time hibernating and so I was a little nervous.... but thankfully all went well and Nigel was also was fine. I informed the previous owners of their progress and they were chuffed.
I know its a bit late but I would like to wish the TPG a great new year and would like to thank them for all the info I continue to pick-up on a day-to-day basis. It's part of my daily routine now to come home from work and check the forum. Everyone is helpful and informative.
I hope I can re-home in 2010 but best of all BRING ON THE SPRING !!!!!!!!!!!! I cant wait to get back out in the garden and just sit and watch my torts munching ........
Thanks for the update and its great to hear they are both doing so well :-) Its good to get nice comments about the forum, we have so many great members/friends on here.
