    Is it possible to house an adult leopard tort inside?

    I don't mind your asking. He hasn't been a problem so far , the lease just talks about cats and dogs pretty much. But he really isn't that big right now so it hasn't caused any issues.

    Is it possible to house an adult leopard tort inside?

    I have a pretty good amount of space. Not two rooms, but probably enough. It's the housing and poop that I'm pretty concerned with lol

    Is it possible to house an adult leopard tort inside?

    I love my Joey and have had him for three years since he was little. But he's aprons 6-7 inches now and doesn't have much room anymore. I have a giant aquarium for him , and it's not ideal at all. He always tries to get out . Is there any way to house him in an apartment? If I could I'd move...

    Tortoise skin randomly bleeding?

    I haven't seen any insects in his enclosure. But I did think it was bleeding because it looks like it s a scab now...I think you are probably right, because when I put him in water he tries to get out after a while and if I don't take him out immediately then it's possible that he's scratched...

    Tortoise skin randomly bleeding?

    I'm not sure why this is happening but my African leopard tort has some bleeding skin on his neck and it's spreading towards his head. I'm really worried. He just got off antibiotics for a RI a few months ago so I hope he's ok now. I soak him but he rarely drinks his water so idk if he's just...

    Tortoise Repiratory Infection not getting better..HELP?

    I'm not sure if it sounds wet and gooey...its like a whistling, squeaky sound. I read on some forums hear that it might be normal so I feel a little bit better but I'm still unsure.... its kind of like hearing a person breathe

    Tortoise Repiratory Infection not getting better..HELP?

    I took my african leopard tortoise to the vet a few weeks ago because I could hear him breathe at night, and he wasn't very active...they gave him three shots of antibiotic (gentamycin). Unfortunately I can still hear him breathe at night and I'm really worried. Its loud enough for me to hear...

    RI + Dark Ears

    Hello all, my Leapord tort is on anti biotics for a respiratory infection. I just noticed today that his left ear is really really dark. It's usually light colored. What's this a sign of? I want him to not go deaf. I will ask them at the vet tomorrow, but they seem to only know basics about...

    Leapord Tortoise respiratory infection HELP!

    Yes I keep the CHE lamp on all the time . The vet gave him a shot of an antibiotic called Gentamicin...he seems pretty well now actually he's eating so they want to give him two more shots over the next two weeks. I'm hoping he feels good after those ones too and continues eating. Here's a pic...

    Leapord Tortoise respiratory infection HELP!

    I dont know anything about four temperatures....he lives inside with me. I have him housed in a glass aquarium. He has a ceramic basking spot lamp and stays under it most of the day. His shell is usually warm which is a good thing I think. I have a regular white Uv light for him
