New here!

Hello everyone,

I'm Zachary, and I've been reading for quite some time, and finally made a username not long ago so I can actually look at pics. Anyways, I've raised a few Russian torts when I was younger, and rehabilitated a few gopher tortoises with my father who is a wildlife biologist.

I currently live in Ocala Florida and after some extensive research I have recently purchased a young Aldabra that I will be picking up this weekend. I will post pictures when it is picked up, and will probably be posting tons of pictures forever on here now!

Thanks!

Hello and Welcome. Congrats. Did you purchase from one of our members? We have two that raises them. One member very active, the other not so much.

I purchased from Sam, at Florida Iguana and Tortoise breeders.
I'm not entirely sure if he is a member, but have heard him mentioned her several times.

Hello Zachary! It's nice to meet someone else who is from Ocala. I was born there and moved to Atlanta. & I'm excited to see some photos of your new Aldabra Tortoise.
