    Hi, I haven’t been here for a few years and I’m getting a little frustrated with the search feature. Is Aldabra man still active on this site? I’ve been thinking of buying an aldabra for a while but have been spooked by some shady breeders. I seem to remember he had a great set up and was very...

    FOUND: EAST HERMANN'S, Sarasota, FL

    Hello! Around 8pm, I was driving down State Road 72 at 55 mph, and cars in front of me swerving around a small chelonian. I pulled over thinking it was a Florida box turtle, and was going to help across the road. Imagine my surprise and delight when I picked up an :<3: East Hermann's tortoise...

    My tort is nesting. Can I interrupt her?

    While I was letting Daisy have a romp around the property, she dug a nest and is now laying eggs.

I've never had a female...

    What is this on the Plastron?

    I just got this little redfoot shipped from up north to foster for a couple days before it goes to its forever home in SW Florida. I noticed the plastron looks a little strange. At first I thought it was just coloring from whatever substrate it was on before, but after looking again, it seems a...

    Sulcata Photos from a Roadside Zoo

    Saw these torts yesterday. Should I contact the facility with some suggestions for improvement? It's a pathetic little place, operating as a "sanctuary," but run on a shoestring budget by a retired circus family. They have lots and lots of animals crammed into a span of a few acres. Lions...
