TORTOISES

Geochelone chilensis

This is a dry climate tortoise. At the right temperatures, they are very active and walk about firmly and high off the ground. The male's mating sound is very peculiar.

 





Color variation in babies

 
The egg tooth is evident at hatching time

If you have any questions pertaining husbandry or breeding of the above species, I will be happy to help.
