This topic looks lonely! Anyone have any Redfoots out there?
« on: August 30, 2006, 04:10:22 PM »
I just became the mom of two beautiful little RedFoots "Garnet" & "Ruby" --  They are about 3 mos old and doing very well thanks to their breeder's wonderful and meticulous care, which I plan to emulate. 

I'd love to start some conversation about these beautiful torts.... I know I could learn a thing or two besides my what I've learned through my own research  :)

 hi, I just got a russian hatchling on tuesday he's one month old and very healthy. I love russian torts however, my wife is more intrested in red foots and if you don't mind me asking, What breeder did you get yours from? I was thinking about surprising her with a little one. I've been checking out turtletary.com and I think his redfoots are perfect. But, I wanted to look at other breeders as well. Also, do you have any pics of your redfoots?

I got my babies from Vicki Hale -- and know that any baby you get from her will be well cared for and in very good health.. her email address is  tortbaby2000@yahoo.com ...I think she has a few left... if you want to see my babies..go to http://www.myspace.com/10878378 and click on the cube of pictures of RedFoots..   #1 and #4 are the ones I picked out that she sent me... They are so wonderful...I had them sent to my office and I was at the ready with a temp habitat w/food...they ate well even after their 24hour trip.... drop her an email and she'll send pictures..... tell her her Phoebe sent ya ! She is such a nice person.......

Redfoots are great. I have a breeding colony of 7.

I know Vicki very well she has some hatchlings for sale. Many of the hatchlings out there are "farmed" and not in the best shape. But Vicki's  are great !!

Hey Phoebe post some pictures here !
