I was just wondering how big redfoots get and what size table they need for hatchlings and as an adult?

Thanks.

Red Foots max out at 9 to about 20 inches depending on the race. The Cherryhead RFs max out at about 9 inches and most of the others average roughly 16 inches.

A 2 x 4 ft table can house a couple of RFs up to 6 or 7 inches.

They dont hibernate either do they?
Is there diet the same as Hermanns but with fruit added?
Are they active?

Thanks.

Normally they do not hibernate but some races do have a winter slow down which can be considered a hibernation.

As mentioned in another thread... I don't recommend any more or less fruit than you would give a Hermanns.

RFs are extremely active and personable.

Are the heating requirements all the same? Same setup etc?

Thanks.

The RFs like it a little warmer and they benefit from a humid/moist area... otherwise it is the same.

Their care is somewhat different to hermans.

Have a read..

Redfooted Tortoise Caresheet

Yellowfoots are tropical rainforest... Redfoots are grassland/transition zone tortoises and most populations occur in surprisingly relatively dry areas.

It's a common misconception.
