I got my first red foots in trade for a gold tegu in 1974. Best trade I ever made. I've been keeping torts eversince.

Welcome ITort
So do you keep anyother torts beside redfoots? We love pics here.

Yes, two stars, one burmese black mountain, and a bryooni spider. Also have a central american wood (manni) and north american woods.

Hi! I have one desert tortoise named Ally who I've raised since she was a hatchling. I used to have another one named T-Rex, but she ran away. Ally is a little over three years old now.

Nice mix Itort.
Welcome bajajackie and Ally. Sorry about T-rex.
Lots of nice folk on this forum Glad you joined us.

Hi all...

My name's Ed... and I'm a Tortoholic. I also go by EJ (on those list who will allow and/or tolerate my company)

I just realized that I've been posting without properly introducing myself... that's kinda rude but it seems that I don't have a problem doing that even in a social setting. I've always thought my social skills have much to be desired.

Anyway I have umteen tortoises and as many other reptiles and amphibians including about 10 to 15 different species of tortoises.

I've been keeping herps for about 35 years now. They have always been an integral part of my life in addition to those that choose to associate with me (whose numbers seem to be dwindling as of late).

This looks like an interesting list that I thought I'd check out and I look forward to any exchanges in information.

Welcome EJ Glad you found your way to us. I'm sure you will be able to add to the forum. What type of torts do you have, and were are you located?

I'm currently located in the Atlanta, GA area(2 years). I lived in NYC(24 years), DFW (6 Years) and SAN (17 years).

I have the usual... Sulcatas, Leopards, Greeks, Russians, Hingebacks, Redfoots and a few others.

Sorta a belated welcome to the group here, but I did want to welcome you. Sorry you lost one, but glad to hear you have Ally.

Hi Ed! Nice to have you joining us. You have the wonderful ability to add a new element into any group you belong to. That was meant as a positive. You say what you think and get some good talks going.

I got a good chuckle out of this post. I've never seen it put quite that way.

Are you Jacqui in the US or Jacqui in the UK?

WHAT there are two of us??!!! And the world is still spinning?

US...actually from Nebraska, the state known for being a hive of turtle/tortoise breeding/keeping...lol.

Glad I caused you to have a chuckle, we all need more of those in our lives. Have often enjoyed posts and entire threads you had hopping on Shelled Warriors and your own site also. You like to stir the waters and cause us all to think and often react..lol.
