I got my new Redfoot Rose in today and she is a little deformed I think and has too soft of a shell for my liking other than that she is one of my favorites (Rose and Pipa are), I love all my tortoise some just have more spunk than others :)
Here are some pictures
Let me know what you think about the way her shell looks

This is where Rose lives. I am quit proud of the enclosure, has substrate heat cable 100 watts on a Thermostat controller and a 100 watt CHE. I keep the very top layer of cypress mulch dry but underneath it is wet.

I got Remy in today from the Fed Ex office :) He is in good shape, nice hard shell and has already eaten today. :) He has two split scutes

Rose loves to hid in her Spider plants and just watch everything that is going on outside her cage. :) She isn't asleep just watching from her spider plant spot. It's cute

Yes it is. I took a huge 50 gallon storage container and used a jigsaw to cut out a square and then I bought plexiglass and had it cut to fit. The plexiglass acts as a door so they are stackable too
