Hi! New to this thread...

[anac1979]

Hello. I am new to this thread. Have kept Torts for many years, mostly Redfoots, some Sulcattas, Box Turtles & a few Leopard Torts. Now I only have 8 adult RF & 2 hatchlings. I have recently made a move from S FL to N Ga, near Athens. Does anyone else live near? I'm just wondering how Redfoots fair in GA? I like to keep my herd outside & in S FL that was possible almost the whole year. I kept my RF in the garage here this winter & I hated it. I worried about them constantly. I am thinking about building a greenhouse for them to winter in. Anyone have experience with something like this? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Hi and welcome! I need Cameron to come along and find the link for you, but you might talk to Tropical Torts. My memory says it's John who just a short time back (perhaps a couple of months now) did a thread about the greenhouse he made for his redfoot/yellowfoots. That thread would be in the enclosure section I am pretty sure.
