I got my first redfoot a little over 4 years ago - she was about 3 months old at the time. When she was about two, we got a yellowfoot and they got along really well. However, Chelsea (the yellowfoot) passed away due to a congenital disease and Shellie was alone for a few months. I couldn't stand only having one tort, so this April, we got another redfoot. I swear, Shellie's goal in life is to kill Padme. They have "supervised play", but are separated in the habitat. I'm hoping when Padme gets bigger, she'll just fend off Shellie...Shellie weighs a little over 5 pounds now and Padme is 6 1/2 oz.

Good luck!
