Well when you live in the city like me you won't be raising Aldabras on a Seychelle Island like this cool old 86 year old. Still wish he had NOT kissed that tortoise baby in the video--Here is my city friendly enclosure built to withstand the hawks that cruise above daily. I have a group of Red Foots and Elongated Tortoises that coexist together fine. In that group are a couple of Red Foot (twin) Sisters now 11 year old. These Girls lay consistently either the same day or within 3 or 4 days of one another. Just goes to show you even with small enclosures you can be successful and see some wild stuff happen. The two sisters are backed up next to one another doing their egg laying ritual in the middle pic..As Vic said "POST YOUR ENCLOSURE". later Rick
