I'm so happy! Look at Tortuga - before and after. I've had her since November 27 and she has grown. Her arms are completely better and she is very active and happy!

She has grown! What a cute little turtle. I'm so glad her arms got all better.

How is her shell doing? It's a bit hard to tell from the photo, but it looks like she may be overdue for a shed judging by the white rims on some of her scutes.

THANKS

I have never seen her shed, actually...

I can see by the darker and thicker seam (line in between the scutes) that you're turtle is growing.

I know how you feel. I rescued Sheba when she was already 6 inches long so I don't have a whole lot of experience with hatchlings either.

Having said that, Sheba rules the house & I love her to pieces. Her personality is so funny sometimes. There are definitely advantages to having a full-grown turtle.

Oh its very nice she is growing now. I can see her tail is also healed. Keep up the good work.
