Red foot tortoises eating pinky mice @_@.

I guess for those that may be wondering if red foots can eat pinky mice for protein ?

Warning: video may be graphic to some people?

I've seen a few similar videos, but I'll stick to worms and other forms of protein

Interesting! My choice would be worms also.

What they said. I think it wold be less mess and easier for them to eat also cheaper!

Nice. I feed my adults hopper mice but stick with worms for the youngsters. Personally I find it very interesting to watch my adults eat the hoppers because in most cases they will eat them whole! They absolutely love the mice!! As for the expense, I buy large quantities at reptile shows for low prices, not too expensive.

My RF loves slugs and snails, so I will stick with those.

My guys love pinkies but they are generally a rare (and rather expensive) treat- but it is not fun to watch. Worms, slugs, etc. are also a more natural option.

I think I'll give Tonka the occasional pinkie when he's an adult, but for now he is loving his worns.
