Good day everyone. Recently a friend contacted me about adopting some red footed tortoises. Knowing I have plenty of space and a soft spot for rescued animals he was sure I wouldn't refuse. And I didn't.
I got 8 tortoises total. Both males and females (including two cherry heads!) and they are all healthy and quite happy in their South Florida home.
My favorite part about them so far is how incredibly friendly they are. Like suuuhuuper friendly. I love how they've learned I'm the food guy so they all come up to me. They almost feel like living "boulders" that come to life all across the yard when they sense me come outside.
I've enjoyed them so much that know I've started doing a bunch of research on tortoises and become really interested in the Aldabra species.
They are just so expensive!
As sad as it makes me I'm actually leaning towards selling these or bartering to afford the Aldabra I want.
Would you guys know of a good and safe marketplace for tortoises?
Thank you so much! Look forward to meeting y'all!
