    Dazed and confused

    Yesterday I noticed that my oldest RF has started to try and climb out of the outdoor enclosure. I found him/her yesterday upside down and I am afraid they will do this while I am away for extended hours. Any suggestions? The other five are content with staying inside

    Outdoor Cherryhead Questions

    AllegraF is a breeder of RFs and she gave some very sound advice. I just put my yearling Bolivians outside yesterday. I have found that hatchlings or anything under a yr need those constant temps and humidity. I am even bringing mine inside when the night temps fall below 70 for them.

    My Redfoot is Lost in the Backyard and I am worried about night time tempatures

    Happened to me last week with one of my baby Bolivians. Both out in the sun and 10 minutes later could only find one. Hands and knees along every edge you have in the lost area. I panicked too because the temps were dropping that night, but after about 1 hr and 30 feet from last known spot I...

    Comparison. Really cool!

    Very cute little one. I first thought where are they that they are on white sand, then I enlarged the pictures and realized that they were on a towel. That's what I get for looking at pictures on my phone. EBTs are fantastic looking

    Look who popped up today

    With crazy weather we are having in Central Texas, I didn't know what was going to happen. Dixie came out Monday and now today with temps in the mid 60's here is Jeter. Weather turning again next week. So, I will have to keep an eye on them to make sure they are deep enough. I might have to...

    Let's Trade!

    Since nobody else is responding about the law update in LA, these are not turtles. They are tortoises and the law does not apply
