that is outdated information. have you read tho care sheet? http://www.tortoiseforum.org/threads/marginated-tortoise-testudo-marginata-care-sheet.98564/I was told marginated tortoise should not be kept in a humid enclosure and will upload picture later when home .
sadly most pet stores have no idea what they are taking about. yea you should never let your tort walk around your house he can easily eat a dust bunny or a pice of plastic, thats not good for him. do you provide your tort with access to water?Oh right will have a look now as i have been reading everything the owner of the shop gave me , plus i will have to talk to the man who works at the shop who sold me him as he obviously does not know what he is talking about , im glad i have found this website , he also walks around the house when im here .
his shell is deformed from being kept without humidity. do you provide him with calcium and a UVB light?
