Can anyone point me in the direction of some redfoot tortoise farms please. I'm not looking to buy anything, just curious what's out there.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Yeah that's it Allegra. Just looked and it looks as if they are out of business. Web page won't open. Thanks.Man, I remember that website, it was crazy the amounts of cherry head they had, including some albino ones. Santa something. I tried a search too, santa rita?
I posted a similar question about red foot farms on another site. No responses. Not sure what the big mystery is with these farms.Can anyone point me in the direction of some redfoot tortoise farms please. I'm not looking to buy anything, just curious what's out there.
Thanks.
Few probably.Thanks Todd. Any info would be appreciated. It's strange in this day and age that none of these South American "farms" have an online presence. I wonder if the whole farming thing is just a code for wild caught. That leads to the bigger question...How many Red Foots are being taken from the wild each year?
Hey Will, Good to connect with you on here. You sent me a very nice male Marginated recently. Thanks for the info on this farm. At least there's some evidence of these farms out there. Have you ever seen any numbers on how many wild caught RF's are exported yearly?
Redfoot are so saturated and common here that there would be no need to ever even think about poaching a wild one.Sure hope your right, ZP. It would be a shame to see them go the way of the Radiated. It would be great if farms actually exist to take pressure off the wild capture. I've read that wildlife exports are largely unregulated in places like Guyana and Suriname. Some have suggested that there are thousands of wild Red Foot exports out of those countries every year.
