If the group of redfoot in the beginning are in fact his, born and raised, then I have a problem with his method. That redfoot on the left does not look healthy, and the rest are all showing signs of pyramiding.

Please let me know if you know of any good care videos. Thanks! :)

I don't understand why some people feel compelled to educate others, when clearly they don't know what they are doing. The biggest redfoot, on the left, has severe MBD. At least take him out, and pretend that whatever he is doing is working. LOL Anyways, my guess is that they are not getting the correct lighting to metabolize the calcium in their diet. Try to get your torts some sunlight whenever possible.


BTW, I'm not even sure the torts feeding in the video are redfoot. They look like yellowfoot to me, could be the lighting.

You don't need to go to any old you tube video to get the best info about RF tortoises. We have it right here on the Forum in the Tortoise Library
