Danny do you know of a link to anywhere that goes into detail about the 'different races' so to speak of red foots? Or do you have photos available of each? If so please show us

No links, but a great book on the subject is "South American Tortoises" by Vinke and Vetter. They have descriptions and pictures of all the races of Redfoots.

I've got and read that, yet I see photos of reds which I can't put into a 'group' Some things match but others different etc. Think I'll have to re-read the chapter again.

I'm pretty sure it's Colombia... or Brazil. Keep in mind that is a dealers place.

Most likely Brazil I do believe I've seen the picture before.
