Today was a great day for us here. We discovered our first ever baby Redfoots!! We have raised the male Redfoot for years since he was quite small. He was our second tortoise ever!! Here are a few pics of them peeking out at us!! Enjoy!!

Mission accomplished!!! Very satisfying feeling, isn't it? Babies look like they have great color too.

Congrats:) I bet you are so elated and feel like proud parents! Although hatching healthy torts brings so much enjoyment to ones' life, it's extra special when you have raised up the parent(s):):) so excited for you guys! I bet you are keeping them!

Thanks everyone!! It is very satisfying to see how your tortoise grows and changes. It is even moreso to see them grow and produce offspring, a very cool day!!!
