I'd kept TTBT's when I was younger, always wanted Easterns though. I found a few for sale via Craigslist and came home with two hatchlings. One's about 2 1/2 months old and the other about 1 1/2 months. The smaller one has an abnormal scute, was temped for female, it'll be interesting to see how...
Sadly this is my listing :( I wanted to be sure this place has a good shot at them. If anyone is interested please reply via the ad and specify you're a TF member, as I'd prefer them to go to you first, probably at a better price too :)

My redfoots seem to approve :D
I started planting these pads for a home-grown diet supplement, however the low-hanging pads seem to make a good mid-graze snack
I couldn't allow this to stand
So after gathering a few of the necessary items....
Just like new!
*Disclaimer*
This is entirely a joke, nothing more than water was used. Car polishing compounds are meant for cars!"
These guys are from the same mother, but do appear to have different fathers. They're both TTBT's, but one appears to be possibly from an Ornate or Eastern father. Either way, cute little guys, and great personalities.
I introduced Jill to my other two redfoots today. To my knowledge, it's the first time she's encountered another tort since being a hatchling. It was quite amazing, the interest she took in my other two. They're table-mates and didn't seem to alarmed at a new presence, but Jill was intrigued...
We recently had a good deal of rain (for central Texas anyway) and I had trouble finding Jill afterward. I looked around for a bit and found her underneath my sons slide/swing, I moved it out of the way to gather evidence :D
I need to have her dig up a mud hole where I intend to...
Weather was decent outside this evening, while I had my torts out for their evening run I dug a new hide into the yard (No easy task in central Texas) and put a cover over the water dish. I had a leftover planter pot laying around which I put to use, and I found 2 road signs under a layer of...
I have recently come into possession of a LOT of this stuff, and was wondering if anyone else has fed this to their torts. The pads get huge and don't feel tough at all, spineless too. Here's a pic of the average pad (not my pic)
I'm going to plant most of the big stuff & feed the rest. I...
I adopted her from Trissa here on the forum, she's about 8 inches, much larger than my other two guys :D
Once she's settled in she'll be a full-time yard tort :)
I'm working with someone on shipping a 6 year old redfoot, the first quote was through Shipyourreptiles.com which was $177.
I've never received a larger tort via shipping, I was wondering if this sounded about right? Shipping on my hatchling was $50 next day, just doesn't seem like $127 is a...
Snapped a few photos of the afternoon backyard run. I grabbed a few spare bricks & made another quick hide for them, they tend to bore quickly of exploring hides as there are lots of weeds that they seem compelled to mow down :D
I'm still trying to understand their fascination with the fence...
