Wow I am no where near you, I live in Edmonton Alberta. I am sure you will find someone nearby who can offer a wealth of knowledge. I hope you find one or even a tortoise or turtle that fits your needs
Don't know how quickly I will be looking to sell and shipping is definitely not a direction I want to go. I will be pretty picky with who gets one since I will not be producing more :)
So is the average for Red Foots around that 150 day mark? Trying to find the best answer but failing miserably... I am so excited for the chance of having little babies crawling around
This ended up being completely accidental. I am more set up for pythons than torts but at least babies take time to hatch and grow. I am so stoked and it is the waiting that will be the ultimate killer for me for sure!
Sorry I did a few changes for the incubation. I added a container of water to aid in humidity AND I checked today 2 eggs have dark spots, I am hoping this means growth since they still have not deflated or rotted. Sorry, I am completely green to this and just thought I would take a shot at...
So I feel bad as I am only active here when I have questions. Anywho, my red foot tortoise on December 3 gave me 3 gorgeous eggs. Now I never had her with a male but I did buy her in May from a breeder as an adult.
I have been incubating the eggs at 30 degrees celcius but am not seeing much for...
I only have a few photos available, mostly as I need to put my camera pics onto my computer.. But these are my two shelled babies. My box turtle Dexter and I was thinking of naming my tortoise Dixie. The weather here has been very co-operative so I have been able to take them outside when I am...
Sorry I haven't been on here for a bit. I was able to get a hold of a vet tech that I know and was told how to deal with this. She has since been drinking, eating and peeing very well. I also gave her daily baths. Seems this may have been her only big stone, but I soon need to make a vet...
Just a week ago, I obtained an adult female red foot tortoise. I am not 100% sure, but she may have been with males, regardless though, she just laid an egg. Unfortunately, the outside almost seems to have calcium deposits (feels like a golf ball) on the shell and is nearly impossible to...
sorry I know all I have is that crappy small pic but the fogger is under the heat source and both the temp and humidity gages are there as well that way I can watch the temperature in the enclosure as well as humidity
actually its the exo terra ultrasonic fog generator, I bought it today at Petsmart and it says it increases air humidity level up to %100... so far it is working and my humidity is already at 50%... It's only been running for about an hour
actually its working quite well and yes its for humidity. I am also spraying the other side of the enclosure as well[hr]
this is the longest I have seen her eyes open for! It's very promising to me :)
