Turtles and tortoises may not be traditional farm animals, but we have a few special shelled residents here at Hoofprints! 🐢
Mrs. Summertime is our yellow-eared slider who has happily called our pasture water trough home for over two years. She’s thriving, healthy, and very much part of the family.
Then there’s Voldetorte, our Sulcata tortoise, who has been with us for three years. Sulcatas can grow to over 100 pounds and live more than 100 years — so he’s definitely a lifelong commitment! He may be small now (25 lbs), but he already has a big personality and plenty of opinions to share.
Every animal here, no matter the species, has a place to belong. ❤️
