i am gettin a adult pair of yellow foots and a 4 inch red foot female does any one know how to tell the age of adults ? i have read on other site's you count the rings on the shell and that tells you how old they are is this true? i was told the yellow foots are around 6 to 8 years old but if i count the rings on shell i count close to 20 or more rings please help if you can
me and the kids would like to see if they breed for us and hatch a few babies out and can they be fertile and still produce viable eggs if there over 10 or 15 years old?
thanks in advance for your kind help and tid bits
as soon as i figure out how to post pixs of them i can post pix if needed
