Kenan: If I wasn’t 62 y/o, I would get 10 of each!! I have the perfect property for them. But I won’t live long enough & I’d want them to all have good homes after I’m gone. So I’ll continue to admire them on your channel!🐢❤️🐢
I hear you. How I missed a life devoted to a tortoise of some sort, I'm not sure. I've had every other animal imaginable ---- but I'm old now. I worry about who will take care of Mr. Von Tigglesworth (Maine Coon) if something happens to me. No baby tortoises for me. :-(
My baby Sulcata tortoise died because I didn't know the proper care. RIP Franklin Im still traumatized from that experience.I plan on getting another one or two when im better educated.Thank you Kenan for this video.
I love the message here: THIS IS NOT AN IMPULSE PURCHASE PEOPLE! (stated just in case there are nimrods who don't get the message) LIKE A PARROT, this is a life long commitment!
My daughter (8) has already told us she wants to take care of our sulcata skoot when we cant anymore. They truly are in a sense immortal. We have had ours for about 13/15 yrs and shes still growing at 98lbs and still has many many years to hunt toes out in the yard. The pet market is flooded with sulcatas. So yes buy from breeders or better yet go to a rescue for one. Because to many people buy them not doing the proper research and find out they can take care of them or provide the space they need. If you live in an apartment/condo these are not for you sorry but not sorry . They need alot of space and alot of GRASS AND PLANTS.
3:59 bought 2 sulcuta babies 5 years ago.I love them.Nala is 27 lbs and George is about 40 lbs they love to roam and escape. GEORGE has been tearing the Habitat apart, trying to out of it. We love them I also have 3 Russian, 3 red foot and a hermes. Also 3 REDEAR SLIDERS We live in a small town in PA I am now known as the Tortoises lady😊😊
Excellent educational video! You are so caring. Honestly, i wish i was younger so i could purchase one. Being 62 its too late for the life of the tortoise. I used to work for an educational zoo. We had a full adult male Sulcata. He was such a sweet guy.
If you have trustworthy family or friends you may be able to have them a good home when you are no longer able to provide their daily care. I have arraignments made for all my animals and as time changes so does the list of who is next in line.
I bought a sulcata 1.5 years ago without knowing that it would become a giant tortoise. The woman in the shop in Thailand, where I live, told me it was a Japanese tortoise. Google helped me clarify things at home. I'm 68 years old and hope for a long life - because of this little turtle. My ex hubby promised me that it would go into good hands if I died
Love the Cultural Videos you have been sharing with Sophia and Leo 😅 ! Now they will know the origin of so many of the lines you "quote" !!! And... also enjoyed the precious Red Foot, Cherry Head, and Sulcata Tortoises . And SO glad that you stress the Loooong term human commitment which may need two generations of of a family to raise them !
You are such an amazing ambassador for reptile keepers with your wealth of knowledge. I just have 1 red-foot tortoise. She just turned 1 yr old and has been such a joy to have.
I had a desert tortoise for a while. He was gifted to us but he would not leave our sucalta alone and we were not about to start a new breed of tortoise so we had to give him to a wild life preserve and hes supper happy now and lives with his own herram and same species😊. We called him Don Vito. 😂
Kenan - Great video to help us care for our single 2 week old sulcata! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Going to give our little "Pinto" a soak now. Will subscribe to Kamp Kenan for more info!
Forgot how much I missed these guys of things from when I was about 10 so 8 years ago I'd watch your channel all the time thanks for bringing back memories
The “Rose of Sharon” is a northern hibiscus species. It’s a common, old-timey shrub and it’s leaves & flowers (usually shades of pink, purple or white) are a good spring/summer tortoise food. Other edible flowering plants are dandelion, clover (purple & white), marigold, nasturtium, all viola species, even rose petals and rose hips in autumn.
They are so adorable, I would love to have a few, but I live near Boston and I feel like I'm too damn old! It really is a very serious commitment to get an animal you know will not only outlive you, but the next generation too.
I have been debating on if i should get a tortoise and I will definitely be getting one now, hopefully from you! I never liked reptiles until my husband got a bearded dragon. Now i can't get enough. And my kids will love to have it passed down to them when Im gone. I love your videos.
The faces of those baby tortoises remind me of an old Billy Crystal joke about a dog humping his leg! "He was intense but his face looked like he was reading the Wall Street Journal!" Seriously, these tortoises (and turtles!) never crack anything that looks like a smile...! On second though, maybe Marge does but I think she only ever opens up her mouth to eat!
Hi, thank you for this video! We emailed you about getting a Sulcata! Also, I do have a couple of questions about caring for them in North Florida. My family is looking forward to purchasing one. 😊
Cute little buggers! If I had the space, if my health was better and lastly if I lived close enough to you I'd have one of the red foots or cherry heads from you.
Hello, my russian tortoise has been showing signs of respirarion infection. Its hibernating for 6 months now and I noticed bubbless coming out of her nose and that she was trying to rub her ears. I dont know what to do since i didnt find a good video about it. So I would be really thankfull if you would do a video about it and how to prevent it. Thanks
#Kenan. HAPPYYYYY 4TH OF JULYYYYYYY EVERYONE. HAVE FUN BUT BE SAFE, FIREWORKS ARE DANGEROUS BUT SUPER FUN. AS LONG AS YOU ARE CAREFUL YOU SHOULD BE SAFE
I'm making sure that do they have homes yes do they have homes yet because if they don't go to if they don't still ask people to let people know if you want to what let me know I have stuff in the background right now like RUclipsr talking
#Kenan you should give a red foot or a Darth Maul baby turtle to matt. He seems like if loved the look of the red foots. I think its time to make Matt a reptile representative. Lol.
We found a box turtle in our yard. The kids and I fed him. He stayed in the same spot for two days but now he’s gone and I must admit I’m kinda sad. I’ve looked all over.
Hi Kenan, how all is well, i enjoy your videos. keep up the good work. for me i say LOVE, it does not feel like work. i have yollew-footed tortioes 1 female and she is laying for so. no male .i learn alot from her. this year i got 9 babies. the food tortoies treats where do you buy them? save the animals and be safe
How long should I soak my baby Marginated tortoises for? Is there such a thing as soaking for too long? Just trying to make sure I properly hydrate and prevent pyramiding
I have a question did you did it today what happens if you what happens what day did you did it today the yesterday did you did they all go home I'm making sure they all go home so
Kenan: If I wasn’t 62 y/o, I would get 10 of each!! I have the perfect property for them. But I won’t live long enough & I’d want them to all have good homes after I’m gone. So I’ll continue to admire them on your channel!🐢❤️🐢
Thanks!
Same here. I'm 70 yrs old, and if I could, I'd get a cherryfoot or two.

Lori, if you stick to the smaller torts, they'll be easy to rehome after you've shed these mortal coils. Just stay away from the sulcata.
DO IT! @@carolley9705

I love tortoises and have two. Thank you for the look into your nursery.
It´s so fun to see Matt getting more and more enthusiastic about Raptiles.
Matt has the best job ever!

I love that!!! Handfuls of baby Tortoises. 😊❤
I love all the videos but I have to say the baby tortoise videos are my favorite. I will one day get a tortoise from Kenan ❤
Babies are just so adorable, not to hate on the adults which are beautiful. I really want a red foot🖤🖤
I looooove babies, they are all so tiny and cute 💚💚💚

I was cutting grass yesterday and actually found a box turtle laying eggs , crazy never seen a turtle laying eggs before !!
They are so adorable, I would love to have a few, but I live near Boston and I feel like I'm too damn old! It really is a very serious commitment to get an animal you know will not only outlive you, but the next generation too.
Love tortoises!

The faces of those baby tortoises remind me of an old Billy Crystal joke about a dog humping his leg!

Seriously, these tortoises (and turtles!) never crack anything that looks like a smile...!
On second though, maybe Marge does but I think she only ever opens up her mouth to eat!

Hi Kenan happy 4th of July to you

I dont know what to do since i didnt find a good video about it. So I would be really thankfull if you would do a video about it and how to prevent it. Thanks
Another educational video💪
Why is the camera man so good at doing his job 😮
I miss my sulcata being tiny!
I want redfoots next year! Still deciding if I want one or two and designing an outdoor enclosure
Kenan’s Forrest Gump impression was hilarious 😂
You should get a second camera with a macro lens so we can get detailed close-ups of the reptiles!
💜💚😍💚💜
Great video buddy!!
Happy 4th of July. Love your videos.
#Kenan. HAPPYYYYY 4TH OF JULYYYYYYY EVERYONE. HAVE FUN BUT BE SAFE, FIREWORKS ARE DANGEROUS BUT SUPER FUN. AS LONG AS YOU ARE CAREFUL YOU SHOULD BE SAFE
👍👍👍❤❤❤🐢🐢🐢
I laughed SO hard at your Forrest Gump 🤣🤣🤣
haha thank you. very proud of that
Kenan does a good Tom Hanks
I'm making sure that do they have homes yes do they have homes yet because if they don't go to if they don't still ask people to let people know if you want to what let me know I have stuff in the background right now like RUclipsr talking
Hey Kenan! Random Question: What’s the Youngest you can start sexing/differentiating the sexes of baby Tortoises? (Specifically Redfoots)
#Kenan you should give a red foot or a Darth Maul baby turtle to matt. He seems like if loved the look of the red foots. I think its time to make Matt a reptile representative. Lol.
Can Sulcata Tortoises thrive on a hillside backyard?
We found a box turtle in our yard. The kids and I fed him. He stayed in the same spot for two days but now he’s gone and I must admit I’m kinda sad. I’ve looked all over.
Somebody tell me I can keep a tortoise happy and healthy in Michigan lol. Ugh, I wish!
Mine are fine with us in Iowa lol
So when is going too start Matt camp at his house? 😂
Big hug from 🇵🇹
Keep strong Mr kenan
Muito lindo os filhotes Kenan! Aqui no Brasil temos 2 espécies de jabuti. o Jabuti-PIRANGA e o Jabuti-TINGA.
I wish I could deal with a tortoise the size of a sulcata!
🤍
Hi Kenan, how all is well, i enjoy your videos. keep up the good work. for me i say LOVE, it does not feel like work. i have yollew-footed tortioes 1 female and she is laying for so. no male .i learn alot from her. this year i got 9 babies. the food tortoies treats where do you buy them? save the animals and be safe
Forgot to check the incubator 😂
Happy 4th Kenan and Matt!! Loved today's video!!
Same to you! Thank you!
Kenan are you still working with elongated tortoises?
The 4th is coming up and I was curious on what you do to keep your animals from getting stressed from all the loud bangs? If anything
I think that vine is English ivy.
How long should I soak my baby Marginated tortoises for? Is there such a thing as soaking for too long? Just trying to make sure I properly hydrate and prevent pyramiding
I have a question did you did it today what happens if you what happens what day did you did it today the yesterday did you did they all go home I'm making sure they all go home so
Love to have a couple but im in England
