Hey there! i'm fairly new in the tortoise world and i'm THRILLED to have finally found an online forum and would appreciate ANY advice you can give me about my 1 year old African spur thigh....
Lately Roshi has had very watery eyes and dry flakey skin..i've been trying to soak him everyday and give him vegetables that have higher water content .(normally he only likes Kale, Swiss Chard and other dense leafy greens) I was wondering if there was anything else i'm missing to help him through this dry cold weather we have here in Cleveland, OH. Also i was wondering if vent-forced gas heating can cause a problem for a tortoise's skin just as it does with a human's scalp and skin. HELP!! i thought my tortoise LIKED dry warm air!!!!!!!!!
