Greeting all,
This is my first post here on this forum, as I've just eventually got my first Cherry head tortoise last month.

(Both eyes are all opened normally as they would...
We got our first redfoot last spring. Fortunately we can provide a outdoor home for him in the summer but now the winter seems to be a little problem.
He has a nice DIY home, big and open from the top but he has a strong will about his freedom of walking. He has found every way to escape and...
I have decided to start a thread about Kona, my eight month old redfoot tortoise that I got at a reptile expo.

I am a new tortoise owner. I have a Redfoot Tortoise hatchling and I’ve noticed some unusual spots in between his scutes. I was unable to scrape or clean them off. Is this marbling or rot? I cannot tell.
i have a year and a half old redfoot and she’s never eaten a lot and is very fussy, but usually eats the mazuri I give her but for the last week she has barely eaten and I’m struggling to even get her to eat the mazuri now and she’s starting to seem very weak and I’m not sure what to do
Hello my wife and I have been interested in a tortoise for some time now I purchased a red foot hatchling a couple weeks ago and my wife surprised me with another hatchling here they are enjoying a soak in the sun
