My new tortoises arrive tomorrow - one belonging to me - and one belonging to my son (ok I'm mostly taking care of him - but he's helping as when he moves - he goes with him - my son poop scoops, and does daily water, and changes tank - I cut up the food and supervise)

They are baby's - male and female - Tank (his) and Gypsy (mine)


I also have two boa's (this momma loves reptiles)

I will post photos when I get them! I have two cage set ups (indoors for now - but when we move to Corpus we will have them indoors/outdoors - plus this isn't our place - when it warms up - but hey it's Fl won't take long - we are gonna take 'em outside a bit - I do outdoor photo's with my snake )

Any tips???

Hello and Welcome:). If they are little ones, you really won't know,the sex for a few years or more. Also, as Jacqui said, what kind are you getting? If they are sulcatas or leopards, please read the threads below in my post for proper raising of them.
