A closed chamber is my dream, however I'm back in school and money is tiiiiiight right now. I'd love to upgrade what I have for Sal, but this is the best I can do right now :/

Hey guys! I've been quiet on the forum for some time, my little Sal/Sally has been hanging out and growing. He's (or she) spent the summer outside in the outdoor enclosure I've "built" (ok, so far its been a dog ex-pen covered in hardware cloth in the grass back yard with water bowl. I moved...

Hey guys!! I'm working on planning the new enclosure I'll be building over the summer for my Sal... That said, I want it to look nice (I'm incorporating the enclosure into a piece of furniture) and I was hoping to plant some tort friendly plants that would, ideally, both look nice and provide...

Hey guys! I'm in the planning stages of a new, larger enclosure for my tort. Sal (Sally) is about 8 months old and a happy little fella (gal)... I'm trying to think long term, and debating on how long I should keep him (her) in an enclosed system. I've not found any details on how long they need...

Any opinions on wattage?

Great, thanks guys!!!

Hey Guys! I'm having trouble keeping my night time temps up in my hatchling Sully's exhibit. His enclosure is in my bedroom, so I would prefer to have something without a light. Subsequently, I'm looking at ceramic heating elements. Current enclosure (getting a new, bigger one later this...

As a baby vet, while we've not discussed neurological issues in reptiles, if she were a cat/dog, I would call that ataxia, which is a neuro problem. I have no clue what neuro issues are in reptiles, but anything with a brain/spinal cord can, in theory, have problems with it. especially with the...

Hi all! Some questions... I have my 2" er in a 20 gal long (I know, its too small, I'm building a larger, closed chamber over my Christmas break), but I'm still having some heating issues. My immediate next step is to tin foil the aquarium cover until I get the new one built. Under the...

Although, the veterinarian in me has to ask and make sure you're not using that baking pan for baking any more :) I love reptiles, but Salmonella is very real... I would say make that a dedicated tortoise tub from here on out :)

Mine does the same thing!! Commenting so I can follow this post :)

Well, that was kind of a joke, don't worry, I'm well aware they're not puppies :)

Thanks everyone! His breeder had him on Matzuri, and sent some home with me. Once he's eating that I plan on adding in some grass, dandelions, etc! I'm continuing to monitor temps I, too, have noticed he's out more when I'm not around. Just now I walked into my bedroom and he was trying to...

Hey All, Yet another question for you! My little guy arrived yesterday morning and has yet to eat. He's had softened Mazuri pellets available to him constantly, in a terra cotta plant bottom. I've placed him directly in the plant bottom, yet he climbs out immediately. He was soaked 2x...

So I've been fiddling with my set up- the farthest, coldest corner is 78 degrees, majority of it is hovering around 82-85, and the basking area is 100. humidity has stayed pretty consistent. I gave the little guy a second soak and he did much better, was out and roaming around the tub, drank...
