T.g. buxtoni

[SweetGreekTorts]

I had the opportunity to visit Arizona Tortoise Compound yesterday and WOW!

Also brought home a new subspecies group for my breeding program. These are Testudo graeca buxtoni, also called the "Caspian Sea" Greek. Looking forward to watching these babies grow and start producing babies of their own.

Hello! I’m new to the forum. Sorry if you’ve shared elsewhere, but can you tell me about your experience with the Buxtoni? I’m working towards getting a tortoise this summer, and was looking at the Ibera, but am curious about the Buxtoni!

All tortoises are fun, but they are habit forming

You know, as with many things that are habit forming, I’ve heard the first one is always free hehe
