Hello! This is an amazing story. I was born and raised in Venezuela and I would love to have an original countryman red foot ;) BUT we already have a red foot and It's been a bit of a challenge to keep her, as she has grown faster than we expected and we have to keep her indoors (Calgary...

Hi there! I live in Calgary and we got a red foot 2 years ago in November. I haven't seen much increase in electricity, but we're in a variable rate so that would make it harder to notice. I agree with the comments of HoneyBea23; the biggest expense would be the enclosure and set up to maintain...

Le looks like she’s judging the raspberries. Lol #masterchef

I’ve had a reedfoot for almost 2 years now, and has been feeding her ZooMed mixed with greens, veggies, some fruit (twice a week) and some protein (twice a month). She doubled her size on the first year and grew a smoother shell (she had some pyramiding when we got her). Sometimes she’ll eat the...

Same!!!! My daughter just recently started to add that to Leo’s food every day instead of the Calcium and Multivitamins she used to give her.

Leo be like, “ what you looking at me for?” [emoji23]

Omg. What beautiful torts you got there! Is the one on the left albino?

Your Redfoot is beautiful! Looks a lot like Leo when she was little!!

This is Leo. She is about two years old and I love her so much. The two last pictures were taken yesterday. First time eating cucumber!! [emoji217][emoji4]

Here is our little Leo, pictures 1 year apart. She has grown so much!!! She’s about 6 inches head to tail

Thanks! I was thinking on the water/vinegar combination but wasn't sure if that would harm her.

Hello all! I'm looking for some advice on cleaning my RF enclosure. We have a glass enclosure with doors that open on the front. We've had the same substrate since we got Leo back in November, and I'm planning on throwing out all the substrate, cleaning everything up and replace it with new...

Hello all! Here are some pictures of our super cute Leo! I'm not sure but I think she's around 2 years old, we got her in November last year with this bad pyramiding problem. Hopefully she'll outgrow it, we make sure humidity and temp levels are how they should be and that she gets a good...

Hello all. I have another question. This morning Leo woke up super early, ate her breakfast and has been eating the substrate. She was chocking with one stick but we managed to take it out. She's been doing it all morning. What could it be? This is the first time we see her doing this, and it's...

Thanks all for the feedback! My concern with the substrate is the pee, we pick up the poop everyday but the pee... and it’s been there for about 6 months now and I don’t know if she can get sick because of it. Any guesses on the gender?

Hello! We got a RF last year on November, and I have a few questions about our current enclosure and the tortoise itself. First, we have a mix of repti-bark (I believe this is the name) and peat moss. I would like to know how often should I replace the whole thing for new one and if the mix...

Leo loves raspberries! Doesn't like mangoes or bananas, and lately won't eat strawberries. I haven't tried feeding him protein yet, for chicken, should I try boiled? Didn't like eggs either (hardboiled)

Thanks for the feedback! That’s a relief!

Hello all! I'm writing to ask for your advice. I notice a few white spots in my red foot tortoise a couple of days ago and I don't know if it's shell rot or not. There hasn't been any changes on her behavior, except for "yawning" every now and then that I read is related to something bothering...

Thanks! So I need to alternate the multivitamin, calcium and calcium + D3, correct? I just want to make sure I understand what is needed
