I live in Ohio so our growing season is not as long as one would want. So I would like to start growing some food in my indoor enclosure. Here is the link to my enclosure https://www.tortoiseforum.org/threads/finally-posting-pics-of-enclosure.186046/ I have plenty of space above his height and...

It's an indoor enclosure day temps is in the 80* and not directly under light. So it seems as if some cage modifications have help no issues in 3 days

I moved some things again after watching him on camera Sunday morning.i just can't believe it has taken him a year to start doing this. How long can he be flipped over without health worries? I moved some things again after watching him on camera Sunday morning.i just can't believe it has taken...

Been working on plants as he eats everything I put in his cage. Have been doing fake plants or raising them. Will run threw the list again to see if I can find anything new to try. Also he is a 10 year old redfoot rescue.

Am a noob here, but how do they get in specially the rolli-pollis?

Okay I'm finally getting around to posting pictures of my tortoise Indy enclosure. Indy was a rescue my wife got as a Christmas gift from Indianapolis. He is estimated to be about 10 years old so wanted to provide him with enough space to rest the last of his life, which I know will be a long...

Thank you, do I need to be concerned about them being in his water dish?

I got back from vacation and saw these in my redfoot water dish. Family came down and changed water every other day vs the normal every day. I have searched but can't seem to find pics that look the same. His enclosure is always 70-80% humidity and 70-83* temp. He also has a basking area...

Thanks, no I completely forgot about the tortoise table site! Bookmarked now. Thanks again

From what the title says I have a redfoot tortoise and I have access to a pond with a unlimited amount of Lillie pads and wanted to know if he can eat them and if there is any nutrition to the lilies.

Thank you, that's the answer I needed

And what I mean by square vs. Rectangle is for his roaming area does anybody see an issue with his enclosure being rectangular

Okay looking for hopefully quick and easy answer. I'm looking to update my current redfoot enclosure, he has an 8'x8' enclosure. This enclosure sits about 3" off the floor with no insulation and living in Ohio you can guess my issue is heat. So I'm going to convert this to my outdoor enclosure...

Do you have pictures of your concept? I would love to see.
