    Sulcata, redfoot mix??

    Just got a new female redfoot the other day. She's 7 1/2 in long. The people I got her from kept her in an enclosure with a 30 lb male sulcata. Is she egg laying size and am I gonna have to worry about them being fertilized by the sulcata when ever she does start laying eggs?

    Outdoor enclosure- opinions wanted

    So here is the start of my outdoor area for my guys. I know it needs help. It's very basic right now. What would you guys suggest? My torts are small still so they won't ever be left in there without someone watching them. To many stray cats around.

    Revamped tort tank

    So yesterday I saw pics someone else's tort tank and it inspired me to revamp Tertius tank. I already had everything on hand from other projects ( building new iguana cage) so it was just a matter of doing it. So far Tertius seems to like it and navigates the ramp well.
