Kenan Harkin explains the differences between cherry head and redfoot tortoises. As you'll see on this episode of Kamp Kenan, the cherry heads really do look like the Darth Maul's of the animal world!
Haha that female tortoise when he picked it up was like, "Woah! Where am I going? What's happening?!" Haha
I ain't afraid of no poop! Great video Kenan. Thank you for making a difference and spreading it through the community. The world needs more like you and your crew.
I've spent the last 2 hours watching your videos. You are living the dream. I have 2 Red Foots myself (male and female). I live in Taiwan, and they love the hot and wet weather here.
The cherry heads are very lovely !!! Thanks & please bring us more vids like this Kenan.
Watching 6:03 in 2024 hits different
Love it! Cherry Heads are so beautiful!
I didn't realize they were smaller, which is even better!

Hi Kenan, if im looking at hatchlings is the dark plastron still a good indicator of a cherry?
Thanks for this, I didnt know there was a size difference with regular redfoots. When do you expect hatchlings this year?
Great video and hi.!! Have a good day and afternoon. I hope all is well.
Hello Kenan , I have rescued a red foot maybe 6-8 years of age today and I've noticed his eyes are weeping and I can hear him wheezing a bit and every now and again a cough , as well his beek / nose has split :( are these signs of low humidity and calcium ? My son and I watch you all the time and come to you for you solid advice .
What do you think about Zupreem Monkey Biscuits for tortoises and turtles? Thanks!
Here in Brazil we call redfoots 'Jabutitinga' and the cherryheads 'Jabutipiranga'.
It is more common to find them near wild fruit trees, they actually are great seeds disperses. But they can't be found in cold-winter regions of Brazil. :(
Thanks man 👍
Hello, I see an Elephant ear growing by or in your enclosure? Is it something to worry about if the tortoises eat a down leaf or branch? Thanks for all the information 👍
Hello Kenan, I'm a reptile lover just like yourself. I own a red foot juvenile tortoise, and was wondering if you knew any good ways to keep a tortoise's beak in good condition. I'm currently using a slate for my tortoise to eat off of so they scrape their beak on it while they eat. Any ideas?
So this is where the two beautiful cherry heads we got from you came from
I have three cherry heads one yearling and two hatchlings. My yearlings through i can't seem to keep her head red. It looks dried out but i bath her every day in non tap water and she has staga moss in most of her houses witch she digs in to regularly and sleeps in most nights. I don't know how to get that beautiful color back for her. What would you recommend?
Hi Kenan
I was wondering if your Cherry heads mate with redfoots? for example a male cherry head with a female redfoot?
Thanks
Afonso Adão yes they are the same species
hi mr kenan, i just bouht 11 months cherry head, and i noticed that the head is a bit faded with yellow color, is it possible that this is a crossbreed of redfoot? tried to cotton swab the head and arms, but still not that red. may i ask your opinion pls? im a bit disappointed, but i think she is healthy. thank you
Do these do good in Arizona?
I plan on building a fish pond in my backyard and want to keep cherry head and red footed tortoises enclosed in my backyard too i was wondering if they would be okay with the pond like they wont drown in it or anything right?
I have a question what enclosure should I get if i want a cherry head tortuous if you don't have backyard space
hey kenan,do you have any tips on looking after a russian tortoise?
Hi Kenan. Don't know if you will see this or not, but I'm really interested in seeing how you built your heated house. I'm planning on leaving my red foots out this winter but they will need a heat box. Possibly, could you make a video describing how you made them? Size and all? I have 2:3 and I'm not sure how to go about building it. Any help would greatly be appreciated
Is the plastron black when they hatch? Or does it darken as they get older?
Do you keep the Cherry Heads in with the regular Red Foots? Also, how do you clean and muck out that water dish? Just blast it with a hose?
I have a red foot baby
Carmine Leggio I’m getting a red foot baby
Is the care the same as the red foots?
Beautiful ❤️
Hey do you ever feed them any meat or do they just hunt bugs?
What kind of pellets feed you with your redfoots?
Hi Kenan, don't you think, that this huge cherryhead female is a hybrid of regular redfoot and cherryhead?
what is the area of your enclosure for 2.8 tortoises ?
Hey I was wondering could I put my sulcata tortoise on sand some sites say yes some say no what's your opinion
Also my cherry head hate cuttle. What can I give him so that his beak doesn't overgrow?
Do you have any babys this year for sale?
I have a baby cherry head. It is a year old. I am having trouble getting it to eat any greens. All it want to eat is the tortoise diet kibble. Any suggestions?
How do you keep the heated side heated? I live in Florida too and have a 1 year old Red Footed. When it gets cold I bring her in. Thanks in advance!
Do they ever interbreed?
Hello Kamp Kenan, I am looking for a Egyptian or Cherry Head but online websites seems to be scammy. Can you point me to the right direction or perhaps you guys sell?
My tortoise hates tortoise pellets, how do I get that into the diet?
Where can you be reached in order to get one of you Cherry head tortoises?
Correct me if I’m wrong. But not all Cherryhead tortoises have red heads right? Brazilian Cherryheads are the ones that keeps the red heads??
Do u sell the baby's or keep them
Looking to get a couple.
I have a juvenile cherry head tortoise, I live in Lincoln Nebraska and I plan to keep her outside in summer, but I’m worrying she is sick. She does not have swollen eyes and doesn’t have noes discharge but she is always in her hide she rarely comes out to eat so I move her in front of her food and then she eats away but she is always hiding. Pretty soon I am building a much better giant enclosure so please tell me if anything is wrong
Can you make more cherry head care video
I have a very friendly cherry head who likes to be pet on the head. Maybe it's because I pet him too much but his head is becoming white and dry. His enclosure is properly humid. Should I be worried?
Do you think those two tortoises can mate? Or any other species of tortoise can?
Anyway to get humidity up in outdoor enclosure in the mid west?
Light mister. An atomizer would be best.
Cherry head and red foot can live together?
I want to get a cherry head Tortoise but I don't know any good reliable places that might have them.
Can Chery-Head an Red-food Turtles also make a Winterssleep. Becaus i live in Austria and in the Winter i always put my Land-turtles in Wintersleep, and i'm not sure if they can too? And i'm very interestet in those! 😊
Nope, they are tropical, no hibernating
my aunt has both cherry heads and red footed torts and she also has an albino redfoot.
she just had two baby cherry heads, and i have two 1yr old normal red foots and their skin is different. cherry heads’ is waaaaay darker
So what will you sell on the kamp kenan store?
How can we keep the humidity high in an outside enclosure? We get about a 35% here outside
Jennifer Crumpler misters. Or atomizers. Add lots of broad leaf plants. Preferably plants that prefer wet soil, being sure to keep the groud saturated around the plants. Good cover and a light mist.
Will the red foot bread a red head?
Hey kenan why can't you buy hinge back tortoises
How come your tortoises eat their food dry where my pet store says soak it and mash it
So cherry heads are smaller what variation of red foots don't get to big
Maybe I should aim for red foods because of size. In California, Napa it gets hot and dry in the summer(and humid sometimes) and winter it gets really cold and rainy.. I also see raccoons, possums, and cats so I’m afraid of getting a small cherry head because it might get attacked.
So these are the things that were making noise in the Slinky trying to get laid video? lol so cute!
i like torto too
Im thinking about getting a red footed tortoise, what size enclosure should it be for an adult?
8 by 4 for adult but the more space the better
balla pepe thanks ill buy a bookshelf for when it gets older
hey I have a florida musk turtle that full size saved her from a srewer 3 months ago but as never seen her eat i out plets she didn't eat that and i put live baby shrimp she didnt eat that what do i nees to do for her dont want her to die
I have a female red foot, roughly seven years old. She sometimes makes a "clucking" sound. Any idea what this means in tortoise speak? She also makes a heavy breathing sound. It's not the hiss like when she's scared, but a rhythmic air movement.
it is constipated. soak him more often for at least 20 minutes in warm water. my tort use to do that to.
Where should I get a red foot
Can Sulcatas and Cherry heads live in harmony together?
Can you talk about the mojave desert tortoise? Because I have one.
I live in Greece at summer the temperature get up to 40'C and at winter the temperature drops at -5'C
What tortoise is good for me?? I have a big garden with 5 Greek tortoises
but I want to buy a different type of tortoises please tell me what tortoise would make it with these temperatures. {exctpet of the Hermann's tortoise and the marginated tortoise}
Oh and also without getting them inside.
TortoiseFan. The greek tortoise
I have 2 big cherry head Females like yours, one medium size and 2 normal size males
I have a big garden but for now, too cold outside, they live in a terrarium
Do you have any of these for sale and if so how much would they cost
+Kamp Kenan how old can they get?
+Kamp Kenan do u deliver to india
+Kamp Kenan do u deliver to india?
+Kamp Kenan do u deliver to india?
Do these not eat meat like it says some places online?
I think they sometimes get protein in the wild but while in captivity the don't really need it.
I really want a turtle. I had one as a kid but let it go in the pond that was up the road it was more happier there and at least it was a pet that wouldn't run away lol
the small ones move soo much faster than the large ones!
Are male cherry heads smaller than females?
Do you take. Care red footed tortoise the same way as cherry heads?

Kenan, my hermann baby has stopped eating and all she wants to do is sleep... but when i bring her out and put her on my floor she runs everywhere so i dont think she is unwell.
