Thanks, Jeff. I was hoping you would add your two cents.

If/when I do add some females, I will definitely adopt healthy adults from rescuses or individuals. I'm not too concerned with them producing right away or at all. I have the standpoint that I want to give my torts a life as close to what they would have in nature, and mating is a big part of that! ha ha. I think starting with two female 3-toeds is what I've been leaning toward for this year, I just also want to get a handle on how to progress longterm.

I don't mind the work, but I also don't want to be stressed to find 50 hatchlings a home each year...
