Whats on your wishlist???

[mango matto]

If you could have any (no limits/restrictions) tortoise or turtle what would it be?

 

[Torty Mom]

Outside of reality, I would love a Aldabra, or Galapagos. I'm sure that is never going to happen.

Inside of reality, I have been doing alot of research on a Diamondback Terrapin. I just love Redfoot Nerds and Kristina's DBT!! I think they are gorgeous, however, I have NEVER had a water turtle. And then of course finding one.....

 

[ALDABRAMAN]

A breeding colony of Aldabras consisting of hundreds, 20+.80+ on many acres right by the beach.

 

[Edna]

Having spent my young adult years in Kansas, I am super-fond of box turtles. I would love to have a happy colony of ornates, and turn my one Hermann into a happy colony as well!

 

[Snapper]

Radiateds, I think they're stunning.

 

[Terry Allan Hall]

More female Eastern Hermann's tortoises...

A 1/3 breeding ratio of Western Hermann's tortoises...

A 1/3 breeding ratio of Dalmation Hermann's tortoises...

(Anyone seeing a theme here? )

A 1/3 breeding ratio of Marginated tortoises...

I realize this will involve several Holiday Seasons...doubt Santa is THAT gullible...

 

[abra]

Sulcata hatchling

[Becki]

I would copy Mary Anne's list verbatim. Whadda ya think Santa? We've been very good girls!

 

[TLL]

but the main thing i owuld like is a nice house with a huge yard.

 

[Marty333]

A large piece of land where I could breed and raise Florida Gopher tortoises

 

[motero]

A front ARB and locking hubs for my Montero.

 

[Mao Senpai]

[turtletania]

How much typing space do we get? First off, I'll need several acres of land, a heated, insulated, 100x50' indoor reptile room, and a few million dollars to make it all happen. I'm way beyond wanting a single animal of any species. I want several breeding groups of each of the following:
Galops
Gpp
Ivory Sulcatas (I'll be keeping my current group of regular sulcatas until I die of old age too.)
Eastern Hermanns
CDT
TT
Geochelone playtynota
Platysternon megacephalum
Manouria emys phayeri
Geochelone radiata

For Lizards:
Tupinambis merianae
Tupinambis rufescens
Varanus albigularis
Varanus komodoensis
Cyclura cornuta
Chameleo melleri
Chameleo parsonii
Chameleo pardalis
Chameleo calyptratus

For snakes:
Morelia amethistina
Drymarchon couperi
Aspidites melanocephalus

For roaches:
Blaptica dubia
Blatta lateralis
Archimandrita tesselata
Gromphadoron portentosa
Blaberus craniifer

Plus a small troop of Papio anubis.

This would be my dream compound and when I win the lottery you guys can come see it all in person. I'll need the several million $ so that I don't have to go to work everyday and can spend all day, every day maintaining them and building new stuff for them. I'll need to hire a caretaker or two as well. Anyone want to apply for the job?

 

[dmmj]

I will be the first to apply

 

[turtletania]

i'm in too Tom. Can i bring mine with me??? hehehe

 

[Tom]

Yes. Whoever works for me will get full medical coverage, a good salary, free rent in a nice house, utilities paid, and and acre or two for their own animals.

 

[DeanS]

...then I'm in too! And I offer the same in reverse (should I win)

Now! For my list! Since I have Aladar, I couldn't imagine anything better! However, I would not mind the following as permanent residents (in no particular order)

RV
Perseus
Bob
Big Mama

Since I know their owners would NEVER part with them...I shoot for the following...

A herd of F1 sulcatas
A herd of Ivory sulcatas
A herd of Galapagos
A colony of Amazon Basin emeralds
A pair of baby Komodos (less chance of ending up on the menu later if they imprint on me now )
A pride of white lions
A pack of African hunting dogs
A herd of African elephants
A pair of Sumatran rhinos
A pair of King cheetahs

A bigger house and property with all the amenities to keep these animals comfortably

 

[Tom]

Amazon Basin emerald what?
