Just a few pictures of my 2 Leopard tortoises, Thor and Sif.

Here's one of Thor when I got him. He was around 3-4 months old.

And here's one of Sif when I got her. Also 3-4 months old.

And here they are now. Thor is almost 4, and Sif is almost 3. Caught Thor yawning! Sif I just woke up for the picture.

Thor is definitely a male. Sif I am not sure of yet. But her tail is still small (leans towards female). Thor had a HUGE tail by 2 years old.


Their 4x6 ft outdoor enclosure for Spring/Summer. Plenty of grasses/weeds they can eat that I grew just for them.

And with the lid on. We do have hawks in the area, so I put the mesh over top and then some heavier wood pieces for shade.

We got a sulcata last fall. Very cool animals. I might steal your idea of the pen with grasses. I have him in a large tub for winter. Do leopard torts dig burrows?
 
Beautiful! They are my favorite tort, I just think they are the most beautiful species. Maybe some day we'll dive in and get one, but for now we wouldn't have where to put one.
Thanks for sharing!

They don't dig quite like sulcata's. They will sometimes dig a little spot and be "Halfway" covered.
