Hello:
The animal in the picture with the bright orange fruit is a K. erosa. K. homeana are more sharply "sculpted." it looks to be a nice animal.
Have a Great Day!!!

Hi Spawn:

I see you've posted a couple of times about hingeback tortoises. How about if you go to the "introductions" section and tell us a bit about yourself so we can give you a proper welcome?

Thanks spawn. The actual animal in question was in the first post... but the picture has been deleted. I will see if I can find a copy and attach it to the thread.

The one that you mentioned is very much an erosa.

Last I saw the big one that I had originally posted about, he was still for sale, and down to $275. Now they are just calling him a "Forest Hingeback" so I am thinking I may not have been the only one that doubted he was erosa.
