Split schutes is not genetic. It happens during incubation, so will not affect offspring.
It's not going to be passed down. Its environmental and happens during incubation not a gene mutation to be passed from tort to tort. That's like saying a sun tan will get passed down.Aren't we supposed to look for the perfect one? Just incase we will have the chance to breed them in the future?
Okay I'll put that in mind when I see it next week. ThanksSplit schutes is not genetic. It happens during incubation, so will not affect offspring.
Thanks, now I know it will not passed on..It's not going to be passed down. Its environmental and happens during incubation not a gene mutation to be passed from tort to tort. That's like saying a sun tan will get passed down.
Wow I learnt a lot from this thread... Tq allI would buy her up in a heart beat. I may be incorrect but most torts with split scutes are females. It occurs due to higher incubation temps. If YOU incubate at a high temp you will produce mostly females. Female aldabras are worth a lot more than males in the future.
What kind of price is the seller looking forLooks perfect from the side
$3,500What kind of price is the seller looking for
I doubt you can get 3 with that budget but 2 might be possible.My budget is about $3,000, if I could get it lower than it's good, because next week I could see an importer friend of mine that will bring in Aldabra with sizes varies from 5" - 25" plenty to choose from.
What do you think? As I might able to get smaller sizes, 2 or 3 of them I guess.
I will update with photos what is available and so forth..
Just want to share..
Yes...absolutely agree..I'd love to have a large one, I dream about winning the lottery and buying a monster one
