Welcome! Just what I like... another busy household!

I want to see pics of your Red-Foot! They are my favorite!!!!

I think you'll have fun here, and learn a lot in the process!

The numbers are the amount of those types of torts, males first, then female, then unknown. So I have four male Russians and 7 female Russians, so it would looke like "4.7 Russians". If I had three hatchlings that I didn't know the gender, it would be "4.7.3 Russians"

;)

Well I don't know much about the Spiders yet, I am looking forward to my first two arriving in April! I'm getting them from EgyptianDan here! Check out this thread:
http://tortoiseforum.org/spider-tortoises-t-1018.html

I'm getting top right and bottom middle! I can't wait to see them in person! They stay pretty small as far as torts go, 5 - 6" tops for females (smaller for males). I've heard they're just really pretty pet rocks, though! LOL! But that's okay! My Russians are demanding, personality wise, so it'll be nice to have some that might not "need" me so much!

Get outta here Danny.. who ever heard of Rolla, MO?

My wife is from there! Actually she's from an even smaller community of Annutt.. and I sometimes give her grief about the nearest intersection of O & OO.. nothin' and double nothin'!

Kay I guess you might say I'm the resident redfoot breeder here.. so I look forward to your pics too!

Small world isn't it Terry :D I'll have to ask my friend about Annutt. Rolla is only on the map because of the university.
The only university in the country where you can learn to blow things up. :p

Over the years they have all spread out to St. Genevieve, Carthage, St. Louis, Festus, and Osage Beach. Dad joined the military at age 18 and he and my mom traveled the world (I was born in Germany). Once again welcome. You will learn a lot here!

I'm about 2 to 21/2 hrs from Rolla. Straight down I44.
Hopefully some RF hatchlings and unrelated. From my guys breeder.
Haven't seen her set-up yet. I just happened to be delivering Budgies
to the pet shop, when she came in with 3 RFs. My guy at the shop
let me have one for his price! The breeder lives just a few miles from
me.
