Kenan's Baby Tortoise Care!

We all have certain ways of doing things and when it comes to baby tortoises I definitely have my own way of doing things! Water, food, shelter, substrate, it's all in this video as I show off my dozens of baby redfoots, cherry heads and sulcata tortoise.

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!🐢❤️🐢

Same here. I'm 70 yrs old, and if I could, I'd get a cherryfoot or two.

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. :-(

@Whips_World Жыл бұрын

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.

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.

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

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. 😂

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.

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!

i have a sulcata and recently her hind leg healed from a couple of scabs. it looks like the scabs were formed by her shell rubbing up against her hind leg. Has anyone experience this and what do you do? filed the edges of the shell to round it out so its not so thin and sharp? doubt i would want to do that though...
