ohh just another thing i was wondering, can Geochelone p. pardalis and p. babcocki live together?

thank you

They are all Stigmochelys pardalis babcocki, Alicia

The 2 subspecies can live together, but why would you want to chance cross breeding as S.p.pardalis is relatively rare in captivity.

hi Alicia as Danny said yours are both the same .personally if i had both subspecies i would keep them the same but as seperate groups.
terry

thank you for your help danny and terry

danny i was wondering about the subspecies as i just didnt know if subspecies could live to gether lol, ive never had more than 1 tort living on its own so never really had to know about it

this may be a silly question but what would you end up with if you cross bread p.pardalis and p. babcocki
