Serious tortoise keeper

[cwby1ntx]

Hello,
I am new here and have been raising tortoises for 25 years.
I have never been much on publicly showing my tortoises but do enjoy sharing information with other breeders. I have 1.1 adult Galaps. 1.1 adult Aldabras and a younger male. 8 4-6 yr old Radiateds and Redfoots, Greeks, Hermans, Yellow Foot, Pancake and a few odds and ends. Looking for a female Burmese Star.
I'm mostly interested in talking to other breeders of Galaps and Aldabras, mine are all of breeding age and breeding. I live in North Texas. Charlie Musgrave

Hi Charlie:

Are you a #1 Texas Cowboy? (cwby1ntx)

Well you've come to the right place to talk about breeding the aldabran tortoises. One of our members is probably the foremost breeder of them in the US. You can see many of his posts under the username Aldabraman.

Welcome to the Tortoise Forum!!

I'd love to see pictures of your tortoises and their habitats.

Welcome fellow Texan. You will find a great deal of information on this forum. You will also be able to PM anyone you wish to have private communication with as well.

Would love to see some thriving tortoises from North Texas, if you don't mind sharing a picture or two.

Hello and WELCOME. We would love to see some of your tortoises. Would also love to hear about your experiences and knowledge raising such giants as the Aldabras and Galops. We are lucky to have ALDABRAMAN share his knowledge and pictures with us from Florida. Would be nice to hear and see how it's done in Texas. Hopefully you will feel comfortable enough with this fantastic forum and its great members to do so
