You got that right haha!!This one didn't take 9 months & 4-36 hours of physical pain to hatch at least. Coco is definitely looking good!!

Awww poor coco...My poor coco.. lol
i took him outside with me to check the Mail..and put him down to walk around in the nice sun for some UVB and I think the poor guy freaked himself out lol he came running to hide under my shoe! Poor little guy…would of taken Pictures but all I wanted was to get him back to his enclosure as soon as possible!! ??
now he’s in his hide..probably won’t see him for the rest of the day! ??
oh well I’ll let him be!!
Michealangelo (my hermann's) walks towards me if someone else comes near him/her (too young to know yet)I need to create a gallery of coco ???
I was reading on how tortoises don’t necessarily have feelings but they know if their owners love him! He’ll react differently like walking towards you when you get home or want to get petted on their heads or shell!
Does this really happen with you guys torts? Cause I have noticed coco wanting his antibiotics a couple times at one point haha!! He has also walked on my hand on his own like “hold me please?” ??
Coco also loves it when I feed him from my hand from time to time! He is a fisty eater lol ??
Haha! The second time he ran under a bush..I had to get in my knees to grab him lolMichealangelo (my hermann's) walks towards me if someone else comes near him/her (too young to know yet)
At my local pet store there's a calcium dust that flavoured and scented like strawberries, if I put a bit of that on it mine will eat anything.Hey guys, what is recommended to feed a tortoise who seems to be bored of their food??
I gave him some squash and a little of yellow pepper..with dendilion greens ? and endure or whatever it’s called!
can he just be stressed?
What? No way?? That’s interesting!
I must check that out! He has been eating the cuttle bone more than usual lately so…
I only give him sweet stuff every now And again!!
The calcium dust isn't particularly sweet stuff it's just flavoured with a little bit of strawberries and bananas so that they'll want it. It is still almost entirely just a calcium powder. When I first got him as a hatchling last year wouldn't touch anything if I use any supplemental calcium and wouldn't eat the Cuttlefish bones so I use this for a little while until I could get him/her to eat regular calcium. I just gradually reduced how much I put on the things I wanted him/her to eat.What? No way?? That’s interesting!

Awe! Ok! That’s the same brand I have but the D3 version!The calcium dust isn't particularly sweet stuff it's just flavoured with a little bit of strawberries and bananas so that they'll want it.

I find that the strawberry banana is useful when mine doesn't want to try something.Awe! Ok! That’s the same brand I have but the D3 version!
I mean mine likes calcium but getting him to eat what he has now been interesting and money is a little tight..but I still try to get him his favorites…but today he probably nibbled mostly so..he’s been pooping normally “except today” since he got a little scared! But other than that it’s been good!
Interesting ok! That can be it then! No idea you could feed tortoises bananas hahaI find that the strawberry banana is useful when mine doesn't want to try something.
Don't feed real banana, they love the flavour thoughInteresting ok! That can be it then! No idea you could feed tortoises bananas haha
I can’t eat them cause it’s two strong for my sensitive stomach!
Haha ok! To much patacium I see!!Don't feed real banana, they love the flavour though
Nah, too sweetHaha ok! To much patacium I see!!
It really depends on the type of tortoise some of them can have some fruit other should really not have any fruit. Mine is a hermann's tortoise so should mostly eat weeds. I have also had Western painted turtles they were fine to feed plenty of fruit sometimes. Which type is yours?Ok..what other fruits is a no no?
