Hello. As I have mentioned I am legally blind. I am also relatively new to tortoise and turtle ownership. I was just wondering if there are other visually impaired tortoise keepers out there , And if so, if you could share with me how you have adjusted to certain aspects of caring for your animals. For instance, if I put the solar meter where it needs to be to get the correct reading then I can't get my eyeball close enough to read it and sometimes finding my critters in their outdoor enclosure is quite and adventure. Luckily my Russian tortoise and my Boxturtle do not mind if I hold them 3 inches away from my face so I can give them a good looking over I am waiting for the day one of them reaches out and bites me on the end of the nose. Dealing with an almost completely silent critter is not that easy when you can't see them, sometimes I'm tempted to put a bell on them. Anyway, I would be interested to know how people with visual impairments, or any other impairment as far as that goes, takes care of their tortoises. None of my friends own reptiles and none of my blind friends have ever even thought about it.
