We are a family of tortoise/turtle lovers teaching our children how to love and care for their animals!
4 Sulcatas
1 Russian
1 Leopard
2 Red Eared Sliders
We do! Is that bad for them?
Inside we have a Leopard and 2 Sulcata hatchlings together. Outside in the pen there are 2 Sonoran 3 yr olds ( that I forgot to mention ), a 1 1/2 yr old Sulcata and a 3 yr old Russian. Our big Sulcata runs the yard, no enclosure.
Welcome! You came to the right place for tortoise information and proper husbandry methods. Try reading some or ALL of Tom's posts. The guy knows his stuff and has learned from year's of trial and error.
Russians don't play nice with anything Evan each other they will Evan bite each other . Sulcatas don't do well with others . And it's best to keep all breeds a part . Torts don't love the at we do , the mother lays eggs and leaves them on their own .
Tom, your information has been very eye opening and overwhelming at the same time! We have quite a few things that we need to adjust for our torts. Can you help me by giving me your opinion on where is most important to begin?!
