Congrats on new job. Setup looks awesome. Good luck on the tests coming up. Where did you get the big bag of vermiculite. Haven’t been able to find big bags in years.
I found you from Texas made morph channel. Very cool tortoise. I’m not a tortoise person. Seen them and like them just never owned one. Yours look very nice. Patterns I like. I saw the ones Nathan got from you. Seeing them in person was cool. I’ve never really took the time to look at them at shows. Seeing yours I was impressed. Looking forward to seeing more videos from you. Good luck on the geckos. I’m sure you will have good success with them.
Hi I recently made the same observation with some of the juvenile/cb adult radiated tortoises I work with. The females have much more smooth shells than the males, even though they have had same diet and temp/heat conditions. Some of the males even have slight/moderate pyramids while females almost have none.
These babies look beautiful. In the end it really doesn't matter since a majority of all leopards here in the US are a mixture of the different local variants from the continent of Africa. However, reputable breeders are breeding "pure south african leopards", some with two dots some with none. But yes, you are correct PP and PB are all one in the same. Maybe it would be cool to give the different clutches names or experiments names? This way we can follow along as you have more generations?
@danielcolima9368 the bigger one's in this video are about seven to eight months old but just to let you know that when they hatched out they were the size of a quarter
I would not know unless you raise them from a hatchling the only reason I say they will be six years old is because I had them since they were hatchling
I never knew you could grow them faster with calcium. I had a female and she was big for her age and for a babcocki but her shell was not as smooth as the ones you had. My Sulcatas were big as well. Great job with the good work raising the leopards!!!!
Do you think the babies will grow as fast being outside instead of the tubs? Will them being raised outside affect their coloring at all? I don't know if there is any truth to Leopards being raised inside are lighter vs. genetics. Last question, would you ever let the babies hatch naturally if you built a little covered pen around a nest? Thank you!
A wonderful place for perfect healthy looking animals. I hope mine will have the same nice shell without pyramiding when they're adult. Thank you for sharing
@@ourleopardtortoises6543 I see some have very little pyramiding and some have it massive. Would you say it is only genetics or how they have been treated? Also, would you say pyramiding affects the health of a tortoise?
