T. g. cyrenaica

[tarta3]

Hermanniheaven,
Did I well notice that you also breed graeca cyrenaica?
This ssp is not so popular nor in our country between breeders, it would be really interesting to see your animals , adapted thousand km's far from their originating habitat; when you have the possibility it would be really beautiful to look at it.
To be true my curiosity is also for your "10 acres all devoted to turtles"......pls do not forget to make us able to admire your empire during the good season .

Enzo, here are some photos of my T. g. cyrenaica. They were difficult to acclimate when I first received them. Some did die sadly. The rest are here doing very well but cannot be outside for more than 3 months usually. They cannot tolerate cold and wet situations like many of the other Testudos.

Hermaniheaven....
how can I say....at the beginning you looked like a kind person ...but now it's enough it's absolutely unacceptable that you have all these wonderful animals , all in your farm ......pls adopt me!!!!!!
I've just booked the first fly to you......I think that you would come and take me at the apt with a "wheeled aldabra"?
many compliments for your testudo, but pls allow me a question...in the Group picture the tarta at the bottom isn't a nabeulensis?
has a different colour and shape....
Ciao

Thank you Enzo! Yes you can come stay with me! : Laugh-:
I was told it is not a nabeulensis, but I am not sure. That animal sadly died a few years ago. : Sad-:

I'm sad for the lost but happy for you and the rest of your ZOO.
It could be very intersting for you coming to Italy and visit some local fairs , and maybe to take some tarta back with you......
who will know.
Ciao
Enzo
