Posted by: TOM_CRUTCHFIELD at Thu Jul 30 07:36:00 2009 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by TOM_CRUTCHFIELD ] I've only ever had one GA in my life because they have always been protected. Even the one I had was given to me by an employee who moved to Florida fron CA. I have maintained and bred many species of tortoise but GA are not among the list. Based on your info I would say it's a female for sure and many chelonians dig test holes before actually laying eggs. My radiata used to do this all the time. My guess is that she will nest soon but unless you catch her in the act tortoise nests can be DIFFICULT to find. We produce a lot of albino Red Ear Turtles and they dig false nests constantly as well. For a three year period in the 1990's I bred the giant Bolivian Redfoots BUT all my babies were found walking around the enclosure. NOT ONCE did I find them nesting or find a single nest...LOL [ Hide Replies ]
