    WTT my 2 sulcatas for an aldabra

    What a surprise!

    So today was my last day of spring semester. I got home from school, misted the frog vivs and fed them. Since it's going to be raining the next couple of days I'm sure the house is going to get loud haha. Anyways, I went to go feed the torts in the garage and I found this single egg sitting...

    New PDFs and Vivarium

    Conspiring...but for what?

    More than once now I have noticed this behavior with my pair. They seem to share the "Team work is dream work" mentality and I was wondering if anyone else has ever had anything like this happen. In what looks like an attempt to escape their enclosure (a large plastic koi pond for a couple...
