Hi all I'm Claire and my other half has just brought me my first tortoise. He/she is a 2014 hatched Hermanns and his name is Chewy.
He's living in a tortoise table which has a strip UV light and a basking lamp on a thermostat with a hide at the hot end and another at the cool end.
Obviously he has food and water available constantly. I've got some suitable plant seeds on the way so I can grow him the right weeds and flowers and in the mean time I'm feeding him on salad leaves and dandelions with calcium dust daily and nutrobal twice a week.
Am I doing all of this right? He's my first tortoise and I want the best for him.
Sorry for the over load of information!!
Thanks everyone, looking forward to getting to know you and your shelled friends!
