My sister has two red eared slider turtles and some accessories. Their rehoming fee is. $20 I have one large turtle that is about 10" and a smaller one that is about half that size. Included in the $20 is both turtles, what is left of their food...
Ok, so we got Roger into ANOTHER temporary enclosure. This one is much bigger than the last. It is about 4'x4'. Since we've put her in there, and with the old enclosure as well, she seems depressed. She's eating fine and I catch her in the water once in a while but she just seems lethargic...
K, we are building a temporary outdoor enclosure for Roger. Eventually I want to make him a garden type enclosure but for now a box it is. I plan to make a 8x4 box with a bottom. It will have a screen top lid. I've read that I need to put plastic or a tarp down to help protect the wood, if I do...
It's wondering of anyone can ID this plant. It's about 5 feet tall growing out of my vacant neighbors driveway. I'm wondering if I can feed it toy Greek. Both pictures are of the same weed. TIA.
Today we acquired two red eared sliders from a woman on Craigslist. They came with probably $300 worth of stuff and we paid $30 for everything. Both turtles are bright eyed and active they look healthy EXCEPT for their shells. They're very brittle and flaking pretty bad. There aren't any soft...
Have a question. I just adopted a tortoise and I was wondering of I can feed my African side neck some of the greens that I'm feeding my tortoise. We've got kale, collard greens, mustard greens and parsley. Can I toss those in the tank for Herman? He is fed worms daily and goldfish occasionally...
I keep reading about how weeds are best for tortoises so I want to give him some "outside" plants rather than store bought, however with winter heading this way I was wondering if this is something I can do inside. I read someone's plan of having many tubs of food growing and then switching them...
Went grocery shopping today and bought Terry's grub for the week. She's a golden Greek. I bought kale, a cole slaw mix, collard greens, parsley, carrots, and mustard greens. I have hostas in the yard and I bought jade and aloe to "plant" in her box. I also plan on acquiring a spider plant...
Okie dokie, I live in good old crunchy, dry, dead Nebraska. Finding plants in the hard is easier said then done, however, I found these two at my moms. The first one is a vine growing in her fence, the second is a large patch in the yard. They're both plentiful that's why I'm wondering if anyone...
Just got my Greek tortoise, Roger, yesterday from Petsmart. I'm looking for a little guidance on his subspecies, age and gender if possible. His shell is 6" in length and 6" in width at the tallest point. My only other care question (and a controversial on to boot) is should I be soaking him...
So......I went shopping with my sister and niece last night. They're looking for a slider and we went to Petsmart and I accidentally fell in love with a Greek Tortoise. Guess who came home today!! His name is Roger. This is my first tortoise experience, we (my husband and I) also have an African...
