About 18 months ago I was given a couple of red foots by another parent at my sons school. They no longer wanted them & as the known animal person was asked if I would take them.
The larger of the 2 was quite already quite pyramided when I got them, the smaller one not so much. They had been being fed on iceberg lettuce, kept on sawdust in a tort table with a floodlight bulb.
i have them on loam cyprus mulch mix with a humidity of 70-80%, heat & UV & feed them a variety of fruits, veg & a little protein weekly. The carapace is growing more evenly now & they seem happy and are very friendly.
No idea how old they are or sex so I was hoping if anyone here could give me an idea & also if theres anything I should be doing different. I have asked on another couple of forums but not many red foot people around i gather.
We called them George & Daisy..the larger one is 7.5 in weighs 1.057, smaller one 4.5 inch 304g
