Hello all,
Some of the following is very sad so be prepared! My mother is in law enforcement and contacted me about a tortoise she encountered on a call at someone's house. They mentioned not wanting it anymore and that it was a year and a half old. They claimed it was a red foot. My mom knew I have a red foot and have for nearly 4 years so she called and asked if I wanted it. Of course I did! Well...... When this baby arrived I have to say, it was sad. "He" (?) was covered in spider webs!!!!!! And definitely NOT a red foot. I need help with ID and advice. All he has ever eaten is some grassland tortoise pellets.... Advice?
