Really! Even with mixing species? I wouldn't recommend just for that alone. Not to mention the fact he ignores the questions about space!
lol cause idk the math on it man it’s my full backyard but listen I’ll get a ruler and get back at you

The sand is a basking area and also for them to lay eggs if they have too I had some cactuses 🌵 growing there , and the only thing I have mixed is the red foots with the female smaller Sulcatas and everyone’s doing fine they’ve been like that they’re whole lives , I’m sure if this is done wrong chaos would ensue but trust me I know what I’m doing , I’m sure you guys are traumatized by other people before doing all sorts of nutty things but I’m good i know these things 🙂‍↕️
I went to bat for you over the baby Redfoot. But I can't support the Sulcatas with the Redfoot.
I had no idea about that.
It makes me wonder if you've already bitten off more than you can chew?
I personally don't have the space for even a single Sulcata.
It's easy to get in over your head.
I've been there before also.

I’ve had them for a very long time and they grew up here and they’re girls too so they’re very chill they don’t mess with anybody but they can’t get into the red foot area but the red foot’s can get into the Sulcata area if they want to and they just chill together sometimes , when it comes to babies and young tortoises they are kept away from anything bigger than them . So there’s no chance for them to get hurt

A full backyard if it's not an acre or more is not big enough for the tortoises you show.
Maybe you need to open your mind and learn a few things before thinking you know everything! Many members here have more years experience than your age! I think you would do a great service to the tortoise you have to improve their life not shorten it by lack of space!

Also idk if you guys have ever been to any zoo or wildlife parks Sulcata are always kept in high numbers in small enclosures mixed with red foots , I’ve literally been to 4 places like this in the last month , I’m not saying it’s right but it happens and these are places charging people money and have the money to give the animals a better life and I don’t see anyone over there complaining

I'm staying out of it and silently wondering why Barb is keeping the argument going.
Chubbs wanted a show, but now out of popcorn and had enough. Also because I can! He responds I will answer. But I am done now, important shows to watch.
