This past winter I talked with Terry K on the phone (Thanks, Terry!) and he motivated me to look into Redfoots, again. The first time I considered Redfoots, I did not find any I liked and moved on to looking at other tortoises.

So, I started looking for good breeders with bloodlines I liked. And then I had to wait until they hatched to pick out the ones I wanted. The wait got longer...I had to wait until the breeder felt the baby was ready for a new home. At this point, I had to wait even longer for the weather to warm up enough to ship.

So, was all that hard work and patience worth it or what?:p

Nah, it wasn't worth it. Cut your losses and send them to me. :) Just kidding! They look awesome!

From the pictures, I think they were worth the wait. Very nice hatchlings...

Five bloodlines from four different breeders and my favorit two out of the eight are from Vicki.:D

Terry K is a good breeder, but what I like in a redfoot is not found in his camp. ;)
