Hi,
I kept my Leo in a humid environment from the age of 1 year (when I bought him) upto about about 8 months ago. He is now about 4 years old. He stopped pyramiding about a year ago and is now a house tortoise with around 30-40% humidity.
He has 2-3 soaks a week and access to water and he's...
Awww it's good to hear from you Team Gomberg and Greg! As I say I've not been on here for a few years so it's good to see how your torts are doing! Good to see they're well! :)
Levi and all the others are looking well.
It's coming upto winter here soon so I'm making the most of being able to...
Hi guys!
I've not posted anything for a few years now so I thought I'd give you an update on how Marley is doing. And see how all yours are doing too! Marley is now 4 years old and doing great! No health problems and he now has the entire house and garden to roam around in.
So he measures in...
My tortoise first did this a few days after I got him home, I researched at the time and some websites said he was calling to see if there were any other tortoises in the area. He does it from time to time now when he's hungry and looking for food.
Hellooo Leopard Lovers :)
My Marley was just in the bath, and I was just looking at the top of his shell, wondering what all your tortoises look like from above! I wonder how different they all can be? And how many different variations in pattern there are. I think the top of the shell is the...
Thanks everyone. I'm going to sketch some ideas out and then contact a joiner probably. Do joiners deal with glass too? I want a really basic box anyway with 2 sliding glass doors and holes cutting for the lights. So excited to start designing!
My uncle is a roofer, he might be able to help me.
Okay, thanks everyone. I was just worried they were growing over his foot!? Thought they were too long. I'll get some rocks. He already eats on slate but they don't wear his claws down wear much, his beak stays fairly short though.
I found this nice little website on how to make your own tortoise Christmas tree decorations. Might be a nice arts and crafts activity to do with your family over the festive holidays! Would keep kids entertained too...
Helllloooo everyone! :)
In the near future I am looking to buy Marley a custom made vivarium and I want it to be massive. I won't give any sizes because I haven't thought it through yet.
I was just wondering if any of you UK folks, or anybody who knows a reliable builder in the UK, have...
Yeah I think I would take him to the vet, I just need to know if they need doing first because some vets will do procedures just for the money and I'd hate them to hurt him if they don't need cutting. Im starting to think they're getting too long because they curl over his feet and I don't want...
