Hi all been a while since I checked in so I thought I would up date you all on Zeus my Homes Hingrback . His eating habits have not changed at all . He is still eating with gusto and has no sign of any colds etc . As you may know the homes hingeback is said to be shy . Not Zeus . he is fare from shy . When held he comes right out of his shell and allows us me to pet his head .


Zeus is my first Hingeback Tort and he has realy been a pleasure to have around .

I do have a question I hope someone can answer too . Being Zeus is a healthy male I would like to see about getting him a mate and captive breeding homes hingebacks so local herpers do not rely on imported wild caught torts . Would anyone know a good place to go to get a female and what husbandry requierments need to be met .


Thanks Kevin
