Hi I am planing on getting a radiated tortoise in February once Ken S. gets some baby ones. Before I do so I would like to see some examples of how the shell develops from youngsters to adults. This will help me pick out the baby once I get one so I can get a beautiful and healthy tortoise.
Thanks for the help- Ben

Get your own permit so you are not limited to bloodlines. If you want the good stuff it's going to cost quite a bit more. If you just want a rad to have one then you can use someone else in your state with a permit. Ken should be able to show you photos, even though he just got some this last year. He has a post too.

Many on here have babies from me, from all ranges of color. I'm sure you can find growth photos in older posts. But when buying babies genetics and bloodlines play big roles in predicting how much color. There are rads and then their are RADS! Good luck.
