Ruby Redfoot - Picture thread!

[MPRC]

That's such an awesome photo of her in the pumpkin!! There are so many adorable tortoises on the forum.

She got in there herself for the best method of attack. I was shooting product photography for my etsy shop and looked over and about died of laughter as she was gnawing on it.

I do think she's smoothing out!

She looks extremely delighted!

Starting to see some marbling on Ruby's underside. The jury is still out on gender.

Such lovely colors!

I have a shop on Etsy called The Rusty Tortoise and I enjoy finding tortoise-y things to sell along side all of the other vintage goodness, but Ruby wasn't so sure of this guy who came into the inventory yesterday!

Awesome! I'll check out your shop. I'm on etsy too but in vacay mode. CuTey CLips.

Making up for lost time!

First photos of 2016. Definitely noticing her pyramids scooting apart as time goes on. Hopefully in a couple years they'll be unnoticeable I'm glad I got her into the right conditions when I did.

 

[Rutibegga]

Aw, Ruby is looking great!

 

[Oxalis]

Definitely looking great!! Very nice!

Hi Guys! Can I have a mushroom?

 

[Oxalis]

What kinds of mushrooms do they eat?

 

[MPRC]

So far we've only tried portabella and white button with the torts. I am a mushroom lover though so there will be more in their future. I can't wait for the spring Chantrelles to start popping up. I love that Redfoots will eat pretty much anything.

Cool! Thanks for sharing!

Ruby's favorite hobby is eating. (Closely followed by ramming my boyfriend and soaking in her heated pool)

Here in Texas we are very limited with mushrooms available. Chanterelles are about 55 or 65$ per 1lb, I buy 1 mushroom for my babies. You should see "the look" I get at checkout
