Hello :)

Hi out there in tortoise land.

My wife & I have been raising & breeding tortoises for close to 20 years. Well, maybe me more than my wife, but she supports my hobby.

We raise Redfoots, sulcatas, aldabras, Brown Mt 7 Black Mt tortoises.

We are currently living outside Dallas, but our true home will always be New Orleans.

RE: Hello :)

Welcome to the forum, Ryan and Virginia:

I just finished looking at your "winter quarters" pix. I see you have a large sulcata. Shoot us some pictures of the Manouria. I also have them, Mee and Mep. Do you have any breeding luck with them?

Yes, definitely pics of MEPs and MEEs. I've got 7 young MEPs myself and am very pleased with them.

Have you seen the new reptiles issue (July) article yet about breeding Mee & Mep?? It was a very interesting article..All about breeding, incubating, hatching.

Hello and welcome to TFO, can't wait to see more pics.

No, but I've read papers by Chuck and his son before. He is one of the foremost experts on this subject.
