Weird–it’s so perfect it looks like a plastic mold or something, not actual live turtle ‘tocks.

2 Hon Glad 10.28.08 at 2:52 pm

Will you be shelling out for one?

3 mm 10.28.08 at 2:53 pm

-with the special tailio cut-out…

4 Natalie 10.28.08 at 3:02 pm

Oh my gosh! That’s my Ben! Erm, I mean my son’s tortoise.

Yay Ben!!!!!

Another fine representation of Tock-toe-ber.

6 brinnann 10.28.08 at 3:07 pm

Natalie, is Ben having some identity issues? What with the frilly skirt and all…

7 chanpon 10.28.08 at 3:09 pm

Turtles are always so modest, covering their little tushies with their skirts (unlike some teens I know today). I love his little scaly feet!

This ‘tock looks like it was made out of chocolate. No?

9 260Oakley 10.28.08 at 3:27 pm

A lady never shows her tailio in public. That’s what they tor-toise in school.

10 Fegli 10.28.08 at 3:38 pm

And look – matching booties! What’s next, a pet snailio in a purse?

11 Kris 10.28.08 at 3:57 pm

Cute tocks! Tiny turtle tailios are terrific!

12 Kari 10.28.08 at 4:07 pm

Holy cow! Look at that manicure (pedicure?)! Are you sure Ben is a he and not a she, Natalie?? I’d kill for nails like that!

13 Kari 10.28.08 at 4:17 pm

Oh, and did I mention, it’s *launches into singsong voice* faaaaa-bu-lous!!!

14 bonnie 10.28.08 at 4:22 pm

I love the little scrunchy leg warmers – very Jazzercise!

15 Tee 10.28.08 at 4:56 pm

To me, this one is only beat by the Rhinotocks, which was the BEST EVAR!

Love Turtle Tock Fa-shons!

16 Sahrawi Wife 10.28.08 at 5:19 pm

OOOHH!! Beautiful !! I have never seen a white turtle before !! Very cute indeed!!

17 jmuhj 10.28.08 at 5:55 pm

Need some lacquer for the nailios, too. May I suggest merlot for Autumn.

18 Katrina 10.28.08 at 6:00 pm

Ben’s footsies look like the center of a sunflower-very twee!

19 Ponygirl 10.28.08 at 6:17 pm

I wonder what those scaly feet would feel like against my tongue – I know that is weird, but I really want to lick them.

20 Maya 10.28.08 at 6:55 pm

what kind of tortoise is Ben?

21 berthaservant 10.28.08 at 7:01 pm

Ben turns around and says in an old man Jewish voice: “You were expecting maybe Ann Mar-grock?”

22 Natalie 10.28.08 at 7:06 pm

Ben is a Sulcata, or African Spurred tortoise. :)

I didn’t think he was real the first time I saw him, but as he grows, he will look more like a typical tortoise.

23 Deckard Canine 10.28.08 at 7:12 pm

Shell skirts are in this winter?

Ah — Shelley Winters!

24 meadowgirl 10.28.08 at 7:14 pm

TUR-TLE! TUR-TLE!

25 hi 10.28.08 at 9:46 pm

I HAVE A TURTLE LIKE THAT!!!!!!

26 Lucy 10.28.08 at 10:30 pm

TORTOISE FEETS!!

27 Cortney 10.29.08 at 12:27 pm

He’s going to grow up to be really big! Wiki says 70-100 lbs!

28 Sarah 10.29.08 at 1:56 pm

I don’t like tocks on animals…I’m glad we’re done with tocktober in a few days…

29 Katrina 10.29.08 at 2:07 pm

Natalie- My friend has a turtle named Porsche, and it will live 100 years, we are told. (She is a herpatologist). They let Porsche run around the house. Ummmm, walk around the house so. They have a house turtle(tortoise)! I told them they should get a house rabbit, but they aren’t going for it- my advice is to get Ben a rabbit to play with. (Not that you asked, but wouldn’t it be awesome to see the two of them around the house? But then, it isn’t my house, I guess).
