Red Foot/Sulcata

Question
Can I have South American Red footed Turtles in the same yard with a Sulcata tortoise?

Answer
Hello Mary. You can house them on the same property just not advised to house in same enclosure. This being said many do house them together as well.
The problem is they carry diffrent medical issues and then they cross to eachother. They will eat eachotehrs poo and this can cause a problem because they will cross contaminate eachother.
They can be safely housed in the same yead yes, seperatly..
