Reptile & Amphibian Forums

I recently discovered the egyptian tortoises on the internet and found a lot of great information. I am in the process of reading it all right now gathering info. Im thinking of buying a pair of these torts and wanted to aks anyone who is willing to post any comments or pictures they have regarding the Egyptian torts. Some of the info I have gathered is a little inconsistent about their tolerance of the captive environment. I was wondering if anyone has suggestions for breeders of these torts? I found one guy so far, last name was Wolfe? I wonder if there are any others? Anything and everything is appreciated.

That's a picture of a leopard tortoise you posted.

This is Tut, my 3 year old male who is a little tank. He's a great tortoise.

That is my leopard tort I bought from Chris Estep, just thought I would include a picture to make my post more enjoyable. Can you tell me how you like your egyptian and where you bought it?

...and Wolf is more an obvious sun basker u see on da net because da rest out there seems to suffer this "subwayfugitivo-syndrome" (there's actual a medical term for it but i haven't enough time to dig for it)...ooops, my boss is yelling...later

Nice cartoon, I can't understand what you are trying to say...

Your the king of non sequiturs..... If you looked up non sequitur in the dictionary there would be a picture of you next to the definition. I enjoy it very much...Good sense of humor

...i get migranes when come near da dictionary and bedise, what's da point when most of da word(s) have not just 1 but 2 or 3 meanings anyway...bloody Anglish you may say ...

You are so right....Took the words right out of da brain.

I don't know anything about Egyptians, but I know this breeder:

I bought a boxie from them and was very happy w/ everything. Last December I was in Florida and was able to visit the farm. I was very impressed!

Good luck!
