    something pink protrudes from star tortoise tail hole

    I'm going to guess you have a male and it's his penis. My 2 year old male will "flash" his penis while soaking and going to bathroom. I was shocked the first time I saw the entire thing. I might never be the same again :)

Your comment about it not being about me was hurtful and unnecessary. Not that I need to prove anything to you but here is Fern burrowed in his...

    Fern is my 2 year old greek tortoise. Right now he is in the zoo med tortoise house and he has outgrown it and I'm ready to build him a penthouse. I've been doing a lot of research and getting lots of ideas but some of the enclosure threads are dated and without reading every single one I'm...
