Tortoise Weigh In, May 2009

Over 60 tortoises came to our Tortoise Weigh-In Event in Burleydam Garden Centre's Reptile Department on Sunday 17th May.

We were pleased to welcome some very interesting and wonderful tortoises which were all weighed-in and given a free health-check by our expert Reg Webster, regional Chairman of the British Chelonian Reptile Group. Reg gave plenty of knowledgeable advice to owners on the health of their tortoises and answered plenty of questions.

This tortoise pictured with it's owner (below) was over sixty years old.
