NB: whilst I incubate all my eggs  for females and tortoises are environmentally sex determined, it is never 100% guarantee, so any families having 2 babies off me must be aware of the risks of ending up with one of each sex or 2 males, as you can not tell until they are a few years old. I am not directly responsible for the sex of the babies only the incubation temperatures!

Important notice:

Some people who have contacted me to have a tortoise, have chosen to listen to the advice of pet shops, who are only dealers, and as a result have not set up an enclosure that meets with my specifications. As a result it has cost those people more money, when I have refused to allow one of my babies to go into incorrect substrate, have an incorrect diet (eg pellets) or have bought an enclosure that is not suitable, especially vivariums. I do reserve the right and have exercised this, to refuse one of my totoises going to these people, as the WELFARE is paramount!

In the long term pet shop advice and set ups kill tortoises!
