Great video!
😄 That’s awesome!! They are such a cool species of tortoise, Very underrated in my opinion.
Great Video❤❤❤ Love it. I have one reed foot tortoise that I brought from my home country beach house❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
I wish I could keep tropical species... but in my climate it would be a hassle, they just wouldn´t thrive. Keep the content coming!
Awesome enclosures

Good work man! They look great!

How can I get a Indian star tortoise I have a red foot that’s less then a year
Can I know the setting temperature an humidity for hatcling the eggs in incubator?
Yes so for redfoot tortoises you can set the temperature at a range between 82-88 degrees Fahrenheit. My first batch was set at 84.
Lower temps will produce more males, higher temps will produce more females.
You generally want the humidity to be around 80%
I recommend using vermiculite as a substrate mixed at a 1:1 ratio with water (by weight)
Too much water and the eggs will likely go bad, not enough water and the hatchlings will have a difficult time developing and hatching.
I also keep a wide container of water at the bottom of the incubator to help keep the humidity level stable.
Hope this helps!
Hello Sir, I wonder is russian tortoise suitable for beginners? or the Sulcata ?
Definitely a Russian tortoise or hermanns tortoise is a great starter tortoise. Sulcatas will grow up to 200lbs and need a LOT of space. Good luck!
