Today, we got a red-footed tortoise! :)
His name is Mac. He's supposed to be my 5 year old brother's "first pet," however we will be taking care of him. ;) We picked him up today... he is SO cute! Even though he'll grow to about 18 inches in diameter, he's only about 2 and a half inches right now. ^.^
Pictures coming soon!
Here are some pictures I just took. :)
On his log hideout:

A size comparison to my hand: (He's going to get wayy bigger than this... after a year or so we'll have to build something for him outside)

Welcome to PT, Mac!
How big will he get? My friend got one of those baby tortoises that grow to be huge! Will he get really big? He's beautiful, what a charmer! ;)
Thanks everyone! :)
Kari, he'll get to be about 18" in diameter. :) Believe it or not, this is the smallest breed of tortoise!
Congrats on your new addition! He's cute.
Aw, that'll be a good size! Do they live a long time? He really is pretty!Quote:

i was also thinking of getting one but i have a bigger tank then that you should have just bought a big tank so that you wouldnt have to keep buying new ones my one would last him about 5 years or so maybe im not sure my mum had them while she was growing up so i know a few things about them
Wow, he is really cool. It'll be interesting watching him grow.
OMG! He is ADORABLE!!congrats to you guys!!
OO! Devon he's so pretty! Congrats to Patrick on his first pet! :D
