Hi all,
I live in sunny south Florida and just found this wonderful forum. We bought a baby Sulcata several years ago and really enjoyed caring for him. Unfortunately, a contractor left our gate open, torty got out and was killed by a car....The family and I are devastated and will make sure nothing like this ever happens again. Nothing will ever replace him but we got a baby red footed tort the other day. We're looking forward to raising him and hopefully more. We have 2.5 acres so there's plenty of room to separate everyone. From what I've read on this forum, there's a lot of controversy about "tortoise rescues". I would like to make a legitimate attempt at this though, at least for a few. No breeding, no profit, no neglect....just love and care for torties in need. If you know any south Floridians in need looking for a torty home, please send them my way. I'm really in awe of these animals, especially the big ones and we have the room for them to live out happy lives. I'd be happy to allow a visit to my property, face time etc....Thanks and I look forward to being a contributing member on the forum.
