Here is Mystique, named so because of the M on his/her ( the other reason for the name...unknown sex ) head. This is one of the babies I'm expecting from Terry in April! Outstanding Terry!




Loves those plums!

mmmmmmm plums what a cutie!

Very pretty baby!!!

Carolyn, I love the fact that you used his/her markings to name Him/her. S/he is a beauty.
congrats and I know you too can't wait for spring. I know little about redfoots other than what I have descoverd on this site. So it was a surprise to find out some of their color comes in later. What a wonder these creatures are.

S/he is so cute...the little M is so neat.. Congrats and I can't wait until you get her.

Thanks everyone . I am trying to come up with names for all of them based on their head markings. As Terry said, the colors change as these guys get older, but the markings stay the same. Here is one I considered naming E.T. cause he/she looks like she has an alien's face on his/her head



This is a pic from last year....maybe Terry has an updated pic???

I know, LOL! I don't think I'm quite finished yet either

beautiful tortoise. congrats to both terry and carolyn!

Are you able to keep them outdoors all year? I can just imagine the indoor space required when they all get full grown, not to mention the food bill! LOL!

You will have an awesome group! Send me some hatchlings in 9 years. 8' ))

I'll be able to keep them outside for 7 months out of the year. Until they get bigger I'll keep them in a room with a tort table. After that, I plan on putting their own building up for them. As for the food, I have 5.5 acres of prime gardening land, and I'll be growing their food for them ! We'll be moving out there in a few years, as soon as we get our house put out there.

Thanks. You bet I will when these guys get big enough to breed
