T U M M I




Hey all. My name is Tummi, as in Tummi the Gummi Bear. I guess my name fits me pretty well 'cause I love to eat and I'm really big; not fat mind you, but just real big! My carapace measures about 10 inches in length now, and I am still a growing girl! Oh yeah, I am a yellow-bellied turtle and much to my dislike my mommy has shown people in the past the smiley face of spots on my belly. My mom purchased me in Montreal as a baby two years ago this past July. I was her first turtle, and I've heard her say I'm her favorite. But don't let the other turtles know that! I love to bask on top of my cave in the tank where Hamilton and I live. I'm a big bully when it comes to feeding time. I know I'm much bigger than lil Hammi and I make sure I get the food first! We get along ok I guess, but sometimes we have bitten each other.

Hamilton and I have had a new roomate for a while now - Gremlin.  He's ok I guess.  He seems to like me a lot, but I don't let him know I notice!

We're all updating our pages a bit and giving them a new look.  I've added a couple new pics for now.  Check them out!








These pics are of me outside of my mommy's home in NY. She took me outside one day for some fresh summer air out by the deck. I love to walk around and explore!



This is one of me at my mommy's current apartment.


These two are of me at my mommy's last apartment. She took me out just for pics in the one below! 


Here I am again at my mom's last apartment. I'm off to explore!


I'm posing for this one! (with a lil help from my mom;)) 


Here are a couple of new ones!

In these I'm hanging out on our favorite spot - The Cave!

Hmmmmm, I wonder what's down there!?
