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.

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

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

RE: Spider tortoises
I have to confess, I'm getting a buddy to go with him (or her)... top right sweetie, too! THANKS DANNY!

I'm HOPING they're opposite genders of one another... I'll be calling them Bonham and Burton (after my fave actress Helena Bonham Carter and her boy toy Tim Burton).
