: Hi Justin,
: Tell me , how did you acquire your torts. Did you buy yours?

Mainly breeders. I like to support captive breeding.

: When did you give the "greek or the Leo " the choice of choosing if they mixed or not?

They were in a 25 foot by 10 foot pen.

: Had I not purchased my torts, someone else in the UK would have.....poss by now they may have died.

And since you did purchase them, the importer probably imported a few more, did you buy all of those?

: Do you not have ppl int he USA who "import" torts?

Of course we do, I try not to support them or their business.

: The fact that they are growing DOES mean they are thriving.

Thats crap, it can take half a century or more for deficiencies to develop. The test is how long the animals will live for, get back to me in fifty years.

: BTW, I do have Leopards, & Russians & Box turtles & chameleons & most important......A life.

Wow what a list, I have pancakes, stars, egyptians, marginateds, leopards, greeks, redfoots, rhino iguanas, dumerils boas, cuora flavos, pink belly sidenecks, map turtles, parrots and various colubrids. As for your life, it must be hectic, took you a whole 5 minutes to reply to me. Are you going to run and get your vet to bail you out now?
