Hi, I don't suggest it. The size difference can be a problem, as can parasites and feeding, as already mentioned. Turtles and torts can be notorisly aggresive when it comes to food, are you prepared to monitor every feeding session? Also, how many of each species are you talking about here, and how large are your red-foots at this point? I like the suggestion of splitting the pen into 2 sections,you won't have to build a new pen, and the species can be seperated making everyone happy little campers!!!
