That is so cool. How long have you had them for? Did you raise them yourself? It would be so neat to see some pictures. They are one very tough species to breed outside of their native range.

You might want to consider writing up some care and breeding notes. The last published account I have is dated 1986 from a group in Florida.

Have you held any back to raise yourself?

>>We have a large colony of aldabra tortoises in Naples, Florida. We have been very succesful with our bleeding program resulting with many of hatchlings over the past years. If anyone has a question or issueS with this species please e-mail me and I will be happy to provide any information and experiences we have had with ours. Thank you, Greg.
