What species do you guys keep and how old are they?

I ask with extra-juiced interest for anyone with experience keeping Egyptian Tortoises (T. kleinmanni) - the type I have my eye on right now.

Thanks,

Here's a picture of my new Star Tortoise. I've had her for 3 days and she is about 2.5 years old.

Here's another shot of her.

Although not a tortoise, this is my female 3 toed box turtle. I bought her as an adult almost 21 years ago in 1984. She's still going strong!

We have two Hermann torts who are both just a little over a year old now. They sure are fun.

1 Husband
4 kids
2 Hermans
1 Dog
2 Finches
2 Betta
1 Cat

I have a Sulcata that is almost 2 years old and is about 4 inches long and growing = )
I also have a little Redfoot hatchling that is only about 2 months old!

Five year old Hermanns
Four year old Russian
Three year old Egyptian (probably my favorite)
Two year old Hermanns
One year old pancake
Yearling Russian

I'd trade 'em all for a mate for my Egyptian stud-boy.

Good looking star, Pat. How's your Hermanns?
