Who is Garden State Tortoise?
However you made it here, thank you and welcome to Garden State Tortoise. Garden State Tortoise is home to hundreds of animals from all around the world. We are a family dedicated to adventure, conservation of wildlife, and all things nature. We are a reptile rescue and breeding facility for more than ten years, offering refuge to those who need it, and working everyday to protect the beautiful world of reptiles in any way we can. Here on our KZfaq channel you will be able to join us on our animal adventures while learning how to care for, protect, properly identify, feed and even breed many species of turtle, tortoise, snake and lizard. We even work with frogs and salamanders! We hope you enjoy our videos and help us share them with the world so we can continue to educate people of all ages about herpetology.

Aldabra Tortoise, final answer! I believe Brian Barcyzk's tortoise Matilda is an Aldabra if I'm not mistaken, and she's beautiful just like yours. Hope to see you guys at Animal Con next week!

The Yucatan box turtle is a fabulous looking turtle. Those beautiful eyes🥰 I would like more videos on the different Greek tortoises. I have a greek tortoise, she's healthy and wonderful but I can't seem to identify which subspecies of Greek she is.

My blood pressure went up 20 points watching you put your hands in the snapping turtle's habitat water. Tortoises are so special. I really enjoy their personalities, and everything about them.

February 2023 I decided I wanted a tortoise in my life. My husband was happy with this as long as I did my research and understood what this entails as it hopefully will outlive us and maybe even our son. The forums online can be contradictory and confusing. Your channel has been one of the most useful sources of information. Your passion for the creatures you look after is so obvious from the way you speak about them…. So we now have a Russian and an Eastern Hermann’s!!! 🐢❤🇬🇧

I believe educational and inspiring videos are key specially inspiring the next generation of keepers is vital. I honestly love what you guys are doing and easily one of my favorite channels. Your conservation efforts are so important specially now I honestly wish more people were helping instead of taking species from the wild or exploiting them for views spreading false information. Just wish more people would help animals and see how important they are. Well keep up the great work I wish you and your family all the best and hope you all have a great day. 🙋♂️✌️

These vids are so professionally executed. Very informative. Best I’ve seen thus far in the YT reptile world. From multi-cam angle shots, to crouching down low to the tortoise’s level so the viewers get a glimpse of how these amazing creatures see the world, it really draws you in and amplifies the overall viewing experience in a very positive way. I’m seeing next level stuff here, bar none.

We had a nearby, large pond in New Hampshire that we loved to swim in. My brother, a budding amateur herpetologist, warned us to stay away from the stands of reeds because that's where snapping turtles loved to hang out. Needless to say, he didn't have to tell us twice!

I never knew you guys had reeves I don't think you've ever showed them. How do they do where you are do the lay at all and im guessing they stay out year round but a lot of places say it to cold for them where you are but then also in their native range they go down into the low like in New jersey but there just not to much info on them so im curious because my country is warmer in the cold months but not in the summer. And almost every turtle species that we can get where I live in the country due to bio security is banned from like 6 available not including torts so that leaves 2 and the other can't live outdoors so reeves is what were left with which great as there my fav out of all any way
