Spider tortoises

I have 5 07 hatchling Spider tortoises, Pyxis arachnoides brygooi. They were bred by a friend of mine and are doing great. Adult females are 4 to 6 inches SCL and males 4 to 5 inches SCL. They are $300 each plus shipping, which is $45. A deposit will hold them until I start shipping in April. I will also do payment plans from now until April.

Love the one in the middle in the second shot. Like the way his one marking looks like a tort.

Tortoises are venomous right?

RE: Spider tortoises

Danny,
I know little about these lovely torts will their shell patterns change as they age or will the middle one always have the torts on his back?

RE: Spider tortoises

No it will change Robyn. Wink The rays will get longer, so it might look like a long legged tortoise. Tongue
I'm sure Kelly will post pictures as he/she get bigger. Big Grin
