It was a lovely morning so I decided to take some pics of the herd before it got too hot. Enjoy!

Can you purchase a small bag for starters? I went to a pet supply store and they only offered a 25lb. bag. I'm not sure if he'll like it so I want to start out small.

Yes, they have various sizes.

Petstores don't have this one. I found mine in a feed store but all they had was in 25 lbs bags. There are formulas for both herbivorous and omnivorous torts. For the redfoots we need the omnivorous one bcs it's formulated with adequate animal protein content needed for them to be healthy.

View attachment 215983, Allegra, sorry for going off on bunny trail here from your thread, thought this was important to address. I struggled with this same issue (no GOOD MAZURI) as well until Ed directed me to feed stores with this picture.

What beautiful torts! Love all the colors on them! And their shells are gorgeous! I might be tempted to get another baby (or couple of them) from you at some point

No worries! Any information is good information especially on where to find smaller amounts of Mazuri. Sometimes I see it in petco/petsmart.

Here are the latest three clutch mates, they are a neat yellow pink not quite peach color: ImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1503161863.205427.jpgImageUploadedByTortoise Forum1503161886.983264.jpg
