Thank you! It is a very large space; several hundred square feet. 4 females to 2 males and adding tonks would make it 5 females, so sounds like a good ratio! Definitely better than what she has now. I want to get her there asap! Thank you for this input it is helpful in solidifying the plan.
No worries. Thanks for responding!!!
I found someone in Florida. Unfortunately he has several other redfoots so he will have seven in the same enclosure. It is an outdoor enclosure and it is quite big!!! I have to accept this. It is a much better home than what she has here in Vermont!!! He...
Maggie, I’m reconsidering shipping. We have a newborn in the house now which is time consuming, and I want tonks in a place where she’ll get all the care and best environment possible.

I have someone interested in adopting her who seems to have a really nice set up and is knowledgeable, but already has a redfoot and they would be homed together. She told me she did a lot of research and that redfoots are social and this...
Thanks for the advice. I am being really thoughtful about asking questions and I definitely won't just send her anywhere. The only reason we're re-homing her is to get her into a better space, and believe me, she is well cared-for here... we just don't have enough space for her anymore..

Hi all,
I know there’ve been quite a few posts on here about this but no res consensus on best management. Weather is getting warmer near me so I let Tonks wander outside a bit and she wandered into some pokey bushes and now has a little cut on her nose. A few posts say to just leave it and...
Hi all!
I’ve learned so much through this forum and I’m so so thankful! After having Tonks for about a year and a half, we’ve thought about what we’ve been able to provide for her and what we feel we can provide going forward. We love her so much and have really cared for her as best as we...
