no problem breeding testudo horsfieldii , it's quite simple . i bred testudo horsfieldii and testudo graeca graeca
for consecutive 5 years in the past and i'm breeding again since 2007 .
anyway better have a group as they seem to choose really careful their partners . in the end of august ,
or early september 2008 hope i have hatchling again .

thanks for the warm welcome guys .

got 2 eggs of malacochersus already(from 24 and 27 April 2008) ,as you know they only clutch 1 egg per laying but could breed 4 or 5 times an year . about the worm,i'm not sure but it's seems to be a genre of Ascaris lumbricoides . when we buy turtles the very first thing to do is a vet diagnostic ,it's prior to take desparasitation seriously 1 or 2 time an year .
thanks for the comment .

@twisty
kinixys is not an easy specie to maintain due to proper environment(high temperature/high humidity) for bacterias .i mostly feed them with worms(meal worms,silk worms,earh worms,snails-you may find all in a hunt and fishing) store,very similar to terrapene,and with some exotic fruits like papaya,mango,banana , along with common vegetables .
testudo graeca terrestris i never breed i'm expecting this year - i have only a trio of highyellow form, the others are common .

Hi! You're welcome!
Your tortoises are fantastic, and also their habitats! Congratulations!

very very wonderful !!!!!!!!

How many tortoises ! They're really wonderful, congratulations!

your turtles are exceptional!!!

that's important for many people that you can reproduce the horsfieldi. can you post the fotos of baby or deposition?

the elegans and the rhinoclemmys are very very beautifull!

it's no big deal to reproduce THorsfieldii , mine live outside all year , and yes , when i got the clutches of this year i will share with you all .i dont remember the year but one of the females i remember layed about 6 eggs which is very rare . anyway normally it used to be 3-4 eggs but these last years as the oldest females have about 40 years and the oldest males 35 y.o use to go to 2-3 eggs each clutch .
if you were asking about malacochersus tornierii breeding, then i wont be surprised because as far as i know only a few ppl in all europe achieve successful breeding of this specie - my 2 older females layed 1 egg each during this last april month .
