I received Tiny on October 31, 2001. We got tiny from Richard Fife that owns Reparian Farms. He said he was born the first week of October 2001 so I guess that would make him to be about 17 months if I have figured correctly. I was told that he was incubated at the lower temperatures and was believed to possibly be a male. I live in Wyoming and so the summer is very short. Last summer I did my best to let him be outside for about an hour daily when the weather permitted I am terrified of him getting a chill and getting sick. But I know that they have to have sun to have nice shells. I have been worried about him showing signs of pyramiding.
