Haven't posted in awhile. My little dude is doing well and eating a lot... and pewping a lot... what else can you ask for?
I've taken up a new hobby and since this is tortoise related I figured I'd post.
Ok, so Tuck has been using his outdoor enclosure this weekend. It's been nice out, like mid 70s and and he has access to direct sunlight and I have a heat lamp in a corner.... I noticed a few bubbles out of his nose thismorning... He's still eating like a pig. So what should I do? Is this...
This it Tuck's little outdoor hut. I'm hoping this is an acceptable start?
I finally found the Kellogg's All Natural Garden Soil. I'll plant stuff in it later.
My patio has slats for it's ceiling so the direct light comes in bars, heh. Hopefully something is better than nothing tho? I'm...
As I'm preparing Tuck's outdoor enclosure I was wondering if I could put some salvaged snails in there as well? I save them from where I work since they kill them (or they get stepped on). That crunch in the morning is always a sad sound. :(
I saw a picture of a Redfoot eating a snail... Will...
So I searched the forum and found a topic on this particular brand but it didn't really answer my question... And the people at Home Depot didn't know for sure...
Is this safe for an outdoor enclosure? I am trying to finish this up so it's ready for when it gets warm. I want to get some soil...
I've had one stream going for awhile but I added another last night of the warm side of his enclosure. I also redid how it was streaming so hoping it stays stable.

So my tort has gotten in the habit (or at least I assume it's a habit) of not pooping unless I take him out of his home.
I won't see any poop for a week, then I'll take him out for his weekend walk in the park and instantly once he's on the grass he poops. I can take him out for 3 days...
Putt-Putt, where my love for torts started. I was told by the vet he had some genetic issue.
I wanted to put him under other since he has passed. He's a little tort angel now. :)

I just got him 2 weeks ago. This is my 2nd tortoise, he is a Greek. My last was a Russian. My poor little Russian was a sickling unfortunately. His name was PuttPutt. Tuck got a nice large habitat.
took these with my Iphone, I'll get better ones this weekend. :)
I got 2 bins from Walmart...
