    New Redfoot Rojo - not sure what kind of redfoot?

    What an interesting acute pattern. I think his name needs to be something triangular, haha.

    My new ball python!

    Beautiful snake. I'm not a snake lover, nor hater, but my daughter got a ball python last year and she's growing on me (the snake, not my daughter, she's always been great)

    We went today and had a good time. My estimate was 60% snakes, 30% lizards and 10% everything else. One seller had a variety of hatchling tortoises and turtles as well as a few adult yellow foot. They has Leopards ($159), Marginated ($149), Herman's ($149), Elongated ($149), and Red Foot. A...

    Tortoise Transporter a/k/a LumpyKart

    Thanks! It weights a ton so would not be practical to ship. I could probably build one if someone local needed one. Turns out I use it in the yard more than moving Lumpy. You can tilt it and slide a heavy garbage can up into it. Plus our Corgi (Yogi) loves riding around in it.

    How interactive/fun are tortoises?

    IMO neither are very interactive, but still fun. My daughter has a Ball Python, and while I don't hat it, I find it less interesting. The Python mostly sits in one of a few spots in her cage. If out, you pretty much must be in physical contact with it. Tortoises I'm finding are interactive...
