Red Foots I'm thinking of buying

FLINTUS · 13-01-2013, 04:16 PM

Can we have sex guesses please? I would have to pay for courier and owner has identified them as male and female. Really don't fancy more males, so I'm hoping for both females.
What do we think then?

Also, what do we think is a reasonable price for them-here's the ad. I am not purchasing the viv as way too smallhttp://www.preloved.co.uk/adverts/sh...tortoises.html

C'mon Dan where are thee?

Looks like 2 females to me

Really? That would be great! They don't look in great shell condition and the viv is too small but if I could get the right price I might buy.

Catwoman63 · 13-01-2013, 07:18 PM

Hope you get them, I don't how they think the 2 fitted comfortably in a 2 ft viv up to 12 months old! They look older to me but I don't know much about red foots, good luck x

I was waiting for Danny too as not to good with redfoots but i was thinking two females aswell

FLINTUS · 13-01-2013, 07:36 PM

Thanks everyone-going to try and bang out a price but due to the courier costs and the shell condition don't really want to go over 150. I've also got contact with someone selling a cherryhead pair(one male, one female) for 150 each or 200 pair. The shell conditions aren't great but they're nice looking things so if by some luck they're both females might have a go at that as well.

The one on the left might be make as tail bigger not all male red foots have a concave plastron.
They are older than 3 years as well more like 6 years

hi yes i feel could be male as well ,one of each, as i had one the same looking and has turned out male now its older , plus looking at mine and them i would say 6 yrs.

They look quite big for 3 years old tobi is about 5ish and she looks smaller than that and rubi and scarlet are about 3 and half the size of tobi. They look nice tho see what you are saying about the shells not the smoothest. My three live together tobi has a lovely shell the other two less so but not too bad. Good luck with them all.
