t9dragon's Russian Quartet

[t9dragon]

Here are some pics of the Russians I got on Saturday 8/18/12... I will also be posting here for future updates...

This is just a temporary hold pen until I can get their outside enclosure and larger inside pen built.

Here is the male.... his name is Geronimo

Here he is with 2 of his girls...

Here are the girls...

Those are some pretty nice-looking steppe tortoises.

The largest female will eat anything you feed her and she will eat out of your hand...

That's a good temp pen! Just watch them for signs of violence and all that. I like the third pic, little pimp chillin with his women

Could you provide measurements, from the pictures it looks like they might be on the small side right now. Thanks.

[t9dragon]

Well, my Russian Quartet is on their way to their new home in Vermont....

 

[lynnedit]

You decided not to keep them?

 

[t9dragon]

You decided not to keep them?

Yes, I decided not to keep them. It came down to a space issue and an opportunity to get what I have been wanting to work with and breed for several years. Also the gentleman that I traded them to has always wanted Russians, so it was a good situation for the Russians.

 

[lynnedit]

Well it sounds like a win-win for you both, then.
