Donatello

Intake Date: 2/4/26<br/>Available<br/><br/>Donatello is a 1.5 year old unsexed baby redfoot tortoise. He was surrendered by his owner with two other redfoots. These tortoises have been dewormed and all have great appetites. His adoption fee is $100.<br/><br/>Tortoises are high-maintenance pets. While this tortoise is easy to house as a baby, he will grow quickly and need a large indoor and outdoor enclosure. We require tortoise adopters to have plans ready for both types of enclosures - this means having a yard with at least a 10x10 (or equivalent size) area for an outdoor enclosure. For indoor housing, at least a 4x8 enclosure is recommended. Grow tents can work great for these guys in the winter as they require high humidity. <br/><br/>As a baby, Donatello will need at least a 40 gallon tank (with solid sides). He will grow quickly and will soon need a 4x2 or larger. Eventually, you will have to switch to a grow tent or homemade enclosure. Baby redfoots need HIGH humidity, so your enclosure will have to be modified for this. This tortoise will live for 80+ years, so please be prepared for a LIFETIME commitment!<br/><br/>PLEASE READ!<br/>If you are interested in adopting this animal, you need to fill out an application at www.bewildnc.org/apply. Read the application carefully and answer the questions thoroughly. Above all, be honest! Research the species you would like to adopt in advance and consult multiple sources, we are happy to answer questions. Adopters agree to pick-up the animal in Durham within 7 days of their approval.
