The enclosure size im not sure but it is large enough as it is in a weird shape so I can't really measure it properly. I do plan on housing Oogway 24/7. Thanks for the feed back I guess ill be using CHE's now that I know they aren't a problem.
I'm currently making an outdoor enclosure for one of my Russian tortoises but I need a something to heat his night box as it can get below 40F at night. I didn't want to use a CHE bulb as it would be connected to a thermostat and I'm afraid it might combust or break after turning it on and off...
The weather in California at the moment is very cold from its normal patterns and lots of rain. I was worried about Oogway and his nightbox as I didn't put any sort of heating only insulation and burred it. I was wondering the different types of option I can go with but I am limited on space as...
No small children, she just said she snaps not sure if towards humans or dogs ,but im sure its dogs, because she seemed rlly friend when i went to pet her in her kennnel. This Thursday we are going to do a meet and greet. I currently dont have any dogs as the oldest died and the other j gave to...
The worler there said she is snapper im not sure if she meant with dogs,but she also snaps at them. Except for that her history is unknown since she was found stray and not owner surrender.
Even if she is 6yrs old. I thought puppies and youngs needed more interactions as they are full of energy i suspected and read old dogs mostly sleep if walked in the morning before leaving.
when you got your rescue how did/long did you leave her alone because she would be alone for about 8 hours a day or the dog might not be fit for me as i read a bunch of blogs talking about how they need a companion (human) at all times and get destructive if bored.
I wanted a dog for a long time and want to contribute in helping in saving dog from dying. I came across Greta she was one of the only dogs that was quite. As soon as i squatted down to see her see came trouting up to the gate of the kennel. I offered my hand for her to smell and then i started...
The testudo seed mix at the tortoisesupply.com is what is use let me tell you...you better grow it seperate from their enclosure or they end you eating them down to the root. The testudo seed mix is mainly broad leaf weeds that are very hardy and can with stand harsh climates just make sure to...
The easist thing for a tortoise table if you don't have the tools, time, and/or skill is goto some thrift store and buy a large size bookshelf and grab a hammer and bang all the shelves out and lay it on the back. If the bookshelf isn't big enough then just connect 2 or however more you need...
that's all fine infact what i use in my backyard is a combo of native soil, play sand, coco, cypress mulch, and topsoil(make sure all have no weird chemicals). The cypress and coco will help retain some moisture while the other 3 are there to fill in the gaps. Hope that helps :) .
