I don't know how old my tort is and I weigh my her every week but Stoli still weighs the same as a month ago...30g. I have friends that have other kinds of tortoise and they grew faster than this. So, it got me to wondering if russians just grow slower?

She's alert, active, bright eyed and eating great. She gets a variety of foods every day(suggestions from here and russiantortoise. org.) and cleans her bowl.
