Oh reading this recalls a lovely memory (nothing related to Green though!). I too had a tortoise at one of my work place as a pet and I was feeding him an egg daily. Later, this tortoise knew exactly even my foot steps and run towards me anytime I reach him. You're absolutely right, they're not "slow" at all when it comes to eating! Their speed can actually be quite surprising 😃
Hi, friend! hahaha what a beautiful memory! Turtles are very cute, calm and super fast animals, do not be fooled by children's stories. Thank you for your nice comment and support, greetings friend!
