So cute! And I love the name for a cherry head! I'm sure he'll be a very honorable tort ?

Yours is going to be a screamer with all that color. I'd bet your going to see some Marbling eventually too. Should be fun to watch this one grow.

Screamer is just what some people call the ones with really bright nice colors. I should of known this tort came from Randy. Can't go wrong with his animals. Yours might be related to mine.

I was recommended him by someone on this forum! I was too late for the eggs, but got a hatching that hatched May 1st! Im very satisfied with his operation, he held my little guy for me until i had the right equipment and everything set up (thanks to the info on this forum) instead of rushing to get everything (and probably wouldve had everything wrong) just so i can snag one! He has some beautful hypo redfoots right now, and he definitely produces fine torts! That would be really cool if ours were related! haha he only had two left when i was recommended him so i chose the one with the split scute! I love the personalities of reds/cherries and im happy i was able to get one, with the proper setup!

actually, looking at my post history, you recommended Randy to me so thank you very much for that! im forever grateful haba

That is Definitely the way to go, getting everything ready before you bring the baby home. Way smarter than what we did! And I love abnormal scutes! They add character!
