Nibbles
is a Mediterranean tortoise who loves dandelions! I got him for my
birthday and have got to known his traits ever since. He is four years old and we
got him in a reptile home when he was one month old. We let him wander around
the kitchen, but put him under his lamp every two days. He is surprisingly fast
for a tortoise, especially if he is in the garden and sees me coming to bring
him back in; he goes straight for a bush!
His favorite places to sleep are under the couch and beanbags, behind the T.V
and in the utility room. We have lost him for three days at the most, but
that's because he went into the living room and we didn't know! He's a very
sweet and energetic tortoise and wouldn't hurt anyone (except for once when he
was six months old he thought my finger was food because it had green ink on
it!!). We hope Nibbles will live to be a hundred so I can give to my kids some
day when I have them!
