I figured you all would like to see some picutes of my baby Shakespeare and learn a little about how i care for him so you can help me out.
He is, from my guess, 5 years old with a huge personality. He loves to say hello to me every time i walk into my room. It seems as though he awaits my arrival. I give him one bath a week and after baths, once he is dry, i put lotion on as much of him as he allows. Although im begining to think he hates the lotion because he "jumps" forword every time i rub it on his shell. I live in northern mn and have a dessert uvb bulb and a basking bulb in his habitat. For substrate i am using Zoo meds forest floor 100% cyprus mulch. I would love to switch to coconut coir but i am allergic and ho-pe that the "forrest floor" is substancial. I have his lights on for 8-9 hours a day and they are on a preset timer. Im a new mom and often freak out about nothing so hopefully you can help me out. Thanks!
I hope to learn how to upload properly later so i can get some questions answered.
