    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

100% Het Hypo Cherryhead X Northern Red-foot hatchlings direct from the breeder. Healthy, active and growing fast. Eating a variety of healthy greens / weeds and fruit. Raised in closed chambers at 80-85% humidity to promote smooth growth. Soaks given daily since hatching to ensure adequate hydration.

I purchased the Cherryhead mothers from Jeremy Thompson of Kinixys Cooperative. He had them paired with his male Hypo Red-foot and these hatchlings are the result of those pairings.

These hatchlings have intense coloration and fantastic coverage on head and forelimbs. Some have more neck colors and brighter color on the carapace / plastron. Most have started to marble but it is only in the beginning stages as of yet.

Het Hypo O1: $670 shipped
Het Hypo P1: $670 shipped
Het Hypo Q1: $670 shipped
Het Hypo R1: $750 shipped

Prices are firm but can make deals on multiples.

The next to last picture in the listing shows an older sibling to these ones, I have every expectation that these hatchlings will continue to develop similarly in intensity and marbling. The last picture shows the cherryhead mothers. I've been very impressed with these hets, they are hets that don't just look like a normal. Hets that are stunners in their own right thanks to the combination of hypo and cherryhead genes. I do not incubate for gender.

I purchased the mothers for cherry head breeding so although I could pair them with my hypo male in the future, I don’t plan to at this time. Quite a few of these hets have hatched and will be listed over the next few months but once they’re gone there won’t be more coming.

I’ve taken photos under various lighting conditions and cameras to try to capture the color as accurately as possible. The flash of my main camera can wash the color out a bit but the cell phone / lower quality shots are a better representation of the color.

Caresheet / diet info comes with each tortoise to keep them on the right track. For the best results have an appropriate enclosure ready and running before setting up a delivery.

Live arrival guaranteed. Shipping only on Tuesday or Wednesday to ensure safe arrival. $20 discount offered if paid via Zelle or Cash App. Payment also accepted via secure checkout with MorphPay, Square (Debit / Credit Card).
