Ok. So last year I met my first red foot at the NARBC in Illinois. Ever since then, I've wanted one.
But I figured that moving out of my parent's house would be a good idea. Well, I'm 22 and finishing college in 9 months (wooo!!) and I'm getting serious about looking into these tortoises!
I saw some breeders selling cherry headed tortoises on kingsnake and I gotta admit, they're awesome...
Some people say they're smaller than regular redfoots. Some say, not really.... opinions??
Would the enclosure for a full grown one need to be about the same size?
It'll still be a while before I bring one home, I just want to make sure I've got everything sorted out!

Also, if you would like to post a pic of your red foot enclosure, I'd loooove to see it

Thanks a lot!
Joanna
