Hi all! Im from Northwest Ohio and just rescued an adult (male?) Redfoot tortoise. I've always wanted a tortoise and currently keep a ball python, a toad, 2 dogs and some fish. I heard about this tortoise through a friend and was told he was being kept in pretty wretched conditions, so I got a hold of the owners and they were more than happy to get rid of him :( He has pretty bad pyramiding and isnt in the best physical condition, so Im hoping with a improved diet and proper heat/light his condition with improve!

I named him Wolfgang, and today Im working on a make shift tortoise table until I can make a really nice one that will be more permanent! Hopefully have pictures soon and can't wait to meet you all and learn tons!
