Hi from Omaha
Hi! My name is Mark Adkins, from Omaha NE.
My tortoise herd consists of 4 Red-foots-
- Oscar is the big guy at 18cm SCL and 1.1 kg.
- Numa is my Brazilian at 12.4cm SCL and 440 gr. Sweet looks with the red nose, and shows a mottled shell with the typical Southern Red-foot dark plastron.
- Pele is my daughter's that I am 'boarding forever'. Pele is 132cm SCL and 522 gr.
- Mylo was my '07 birthday present and is now 134cm SCL and 376 gr.
I have had a variety of tortoises in the past- Red-foots, Elongated, Hinge-back, Greek, and Russian, as well as some turtles- Eastern, Three-toed, and Ornate Box and NA Wood.
Other pets include or have included rats, cats, dogs, chinchillas, guinea pigs, rabbits, and four kids (youngest graduating high school this term.)
