Do you have any turtles, tortoises, incubators, shelters, books or other items you'd like to exchange with other club members? Have you decided whether or not you can attend our next monthly meeting? Please submit your RSVP on that meeting's page.

"Our tortoise spent 23 hours with a male of the same species in August so we would appreciate borrowing an incubator at some point, not sure when! I will be coming to the meeting with my husband & maybe one daughter."

Describe the kinds of turtles or tortoises you keep or have kept as pets. How are they housed and fed? Have any of them produced offspring while in your care? Do you have any questions, or can you offer advice, about their care?

"We have a 10 yr old female terrestial tortoise bought in the south of France.She has a 3 - 4 'm space fenced off with concrete & grass. We give her salad, piss on lee, tomatoes or other veg/fruit daily. I let her walk out onto the lawn most days. "

Are you mostly interested in keeping turtles and/or tortoises as pets, or in preserving their habitats to assure their survival in the wild? Are you interested in other reptiles, amphibians or other animals? What other specific interests do you have?

"Tortoises. Also like dogs & horses. Other interests, photography."
