Out of curiosity, in what way would keeping them in a paired situation affect growth? To my knowledge my big female was kept for a time with her younger brother who was much smaller (they told us they had been "medically sexed" and the little one was also a female, but he showed us a couple...
A detail I should have given, I am in New York right now on Long Island so they must be kept indoors because it is prohibitively cold outside. I had to come to NY for an extended stay a little over a year ago and had no choice but to take her with me. We will be returning to Orlando in the...
Will do. Does anyone have an opinion on the age? As I said this is my first leopard so I have no firsthand experience to reference as far as growth, she seems pretty large to me for the age they gave me, but I also don't know what her genetic origin is as far as the locality or whether she has...
I will make sure she has tons of water, it's just strange because for all these years straight she has had 24/7 access to water to drink/soak in and it was still virtually an every day thing that she would wake up, soak, and drink where I could see her neck sucking up and swallowing the water...
Yeah, you can see in the second picture above, she has always had a massive saucer that she would soak in and a cement mixing tub after that, only just recently did we have to remove the water feature, and were replacing with bathing, but I will immediately figure a solution and replace the...
Up until about a month ago, she had a massive cement mixing tub with water that she would soak in daily and drink from. She has always visibly drank a lot. I watch her put her mouth down and suck up water all the time, since the enclosure situation has moved around for winter, she has been...
Hmmm, I've never seen her pass urates like that before and she hasn't laid eggs this season. She laid 9 last year. In person it doesn't look like urates. It would relieve me if you were right, but my brother has a Sulcata that passes urates and they look nothing like this. I have another video...
I have a leopard tortoise that just started laying a similar type of very goopy underdeveloped egg as you describe. She has been passing them when I bathe her. There have been 3 so far, and it has been making me extremely nervous as it was hard to find information about, and it seemed so...
