I really hope that one day i will be able to buy one of these beautiful tortoises from you. Ive had a sulcata for about 8 years now we got him when he was the size of a half dollar and he is so big now. He follows me around and he even enjoys walking around our yard with our dogs.

Hello, i was thinking about getting a 6 month old aldabra hatchling and wanted to ask how to house it properly. Any advice? I live in the Philippines so humidity outside is not much of a problem.

@CUP_1111 4 жыл бұрын

Bro it take 25 years till they grow half size and u cant keep it in the house recomend 3 10 acres of land

@scottgleason4511 4 жыл бұрын

I have alway wanted one but is would be better to have two or three how much space would you need to make them happy

@SamsGiantTortoiseFarm 4 жыл бұрын

if you start off with 4-inch hatchlings you really don't need much space. but as they grow then you need more space but that takes 20 years. up to 5 years you can keep them in a space of 30x30 feet Sam

Could an Aldabra Tortoises survive and thrive in a state that has Winters like North Alabama?

@daemonzap1481 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah but you need to keep it in a heated area during winter since they come from a hotter area.
