In honor of Albus Jordan

This blog, and all we do for our tortoises, is done to honor Albus Jordan, our first Red Foot Tortoise. We know Albus would have loved the tortoise yard!

Our hobby



Our hobby takes us to Africa, the Mediterranean, and South America! We have invited a number of tortoises into our home. We have spent a lot of time learning about their native areas, trying to recreate this in Northern Idaho, and spent a lot of money along the way. Enjoy the slideshows dedicated to each of our friends!

Such a lovely collection, I enjoy watching the pictures all most as much as watching them in person. Sure makes being away from home easier getting to see yours and mine on the puter.
