I think you are right. That’s why i have given up hope. Anyway i have always secretly thought of owning an Aldabra, a chance just came up and i might go for an Aladabra instead of a Leopard.
Hi Koala,
Notice you are from Cape Town. I was on holiday there not too long ago. Beautiful city.
Thanks for your advice. Maybe i just did not interact enough with Frodo. But at this moment I have decided to get an Aldabra baby and hoepfully with lots of TLC things will be different.
Thanks a million Tom. Your really know your stuff well. Your babies are stunning. How i wish I live nearby you. Its really good to hear that you are trying to preserve this breed line. I think it is very important. As for me, i am still undecided. If i cant get a South African leopard, i might...
Wow they are absolutely stunning. Thanks for sharing these pictures. Helpful for comparisons in the future. But i doubt we have any of these in Malaysia.
Hi Tom,
One pet store claims his is pardalis pardalis. Can you confirm by the pictures on his website

Hello. This is my first thread. I am also a beginner in raising tortoises. So far i had only kept and raised one leopard tortoise Frodo which died in a car accident. Frodo was 2 years old. It was heartbreaking and took us a while before deciding on raising a new leopard.
But one thing i realise...
