It's finally that time of the year where the baby tortoises are hatching out of the ground! Here in Arizona it's one of the only places where people have success by letting Sulcata Tortoises hatch out naturally.

The other day I got some UNBELIEVABLE footage of my tortoise laying eggs. We also went around and fed ALL the tortoises and put the GoPro on Ike for the day! Full Video - kzread.info/dash/bejne/mYeEy5KvXbTdmcY.html

Imagine being born a baby tortoise: scared. alone. hungry. then, all of the sudden, a warm voice: “Hey buddy!” and whether you know it or not, you’re gonna live the rest of your life as best as any tortoise ever has ❤

I'm from AZ too and my neighbor found a baby sulcata tortoise walking in her yard. We were very confused about where it came from. No one near us has reptiles but some friends and I. So seeing this baby we decided to walk around looking for more as well to see if there was someone with tortoises that was near. We didn't find anything, no babies, and not anyone who owed tortoises too. There was talk last year about someone's pet getting out but I had no idea if that was near me or not or if there are just wild tortoises living near my area that someone released. The baby still has a yolk sack on it when we found it. I decided to keep it as I have the space for it when it is bigger and experience with reptiles already. We are just confused about where they could have come from. It's been about a week now and still no sign of others. But the one I have is doing well.

Same thing happened to me last week. I also live in Arizona but the townhome community I live in is all grass. We have houses behind us but other than that it just appeared out of nowhere on the sidewalk the other day. I looked around and still look and haven’t found any others so I think someone’s pet just got out. I put out flyers and no one called so I gave it to my friend down in Tucson who has a big ranch with other Sulcata’s. It was too cute though. Sadly we only have a small balcony and that’s it, it deserves more. Zeus is now living his/her best life in southern AZ.

This is so precious, all these babies have no idea the childhood they're about to have. I would absolutely carry a baby tortoise in my pocket except that's probably not healthy for them and they'd pee in my hoodie. But just imagine having a buddy at the ready, that would be incredible. Stay safe homie, you're doing amazing work. Thanks for letting us see.

I know longer content can be difficult to produce, and it may not get as much traction the shorts initially. However, I personally love these longer videos.
This is the only kind of treasure hunt I want! Words can't describe the joy I feel each time you find a baby tortoise. Truthfully I'd watch hours of just this and lament on how short it was.

Did not know that little bit about the markings on the shells sometimes not being symmetrical. That was interesting to learn! It’s amazing how many babies are all over your yard!
I'm so glad you posted longer videos!! Keep it up
Ike is really a hardworker, working hard to make more of him 😁
I would literally spend an entire day doing this just for the sake of doing it. My payment can be free drinks and unlimited time to cry over how damn small they are
I’d be terrified to miss one! You’ve got real good eyes.
theyre so burger shaped i love them sm

It's like Easter hinting but with baby turtles. 😊🐢
4:45 - ohh man, glad you found those little guys! 🐢🐢 At no point in this video you seem a bit hesitant to put your hands on places where you could find spiders 😅 I wonder how the lifestyle of a turtle breeder looks like, it's similar to a farmer I guess?
What's the mortality rate of those guys? What are you going to do with 50 tortoises?
To make this even cuter (is if it wasn't cute enough already) imagine a little "meep" sound every time he picks one of the babies up :D
Awe the little baby tortoises!😊🐢 They are so so cute! Do you think you found em all?😧 Do you ever find any around that are bigger? Any that have passed due to not finding them right away? I'm so happy for the longer content!

Just conjecture, but the hatching area has plenty of vegetation, so they wouldn't starve. There's shade, and there's water for the bigger tortoises, no predators. He probably sells them, so picking them up is like picking $500 from the ground. If any deaths, if at all, it'll be absolutely minimal.

I try to keep as many babies as I can but unfortunately I'm not able to keep every single one with the amount that they do have, so after I make sure they're 100% healthy and ready, I do let some go to new and good homes. I ALWAYS be sure they go to a good home and that the person is 100% educated and knows what they are getting themselves into.

I feel like this is what my yard looks like with wild Florida gopher turtles and always having to lookout for the babies. My property was a haven for gophers when I bought it but the last couple of years they have really started to flourish.
That's insane , just having that man sultcatas in the garden you had no idea were there. A happy environment, those tortises are breeding so readily and naturally.
So cute
