Red Foot Tortoise CB22

Tortoises are calm natured animals who enjoy affection and make the perfect pet, given the ideal home. They can live up to 150 years- dependent on species and grow to a variety of sizes.

Red foot tortoises originate in Central and Southern America making them a humidity loving species

Red Foot Tortoises grow very large and males can weigh up to 9kg that’s 1 and a half stone!

Red foots– unlike some tortoises– are scavengers who occasionally eat pinkie mice (once or twice a month) they also eat mango, berries and other fruits as part of their diet, and they love mushrooms as part of a balanced diet mixed with their other foods

You may enjoy taking your tortoise out during the peak summer heat, we recommend minimising this time to 15-30 minutes so that your tortoise doesn’t get cold. Be ware of wild plants which may be poisonous to your pet
