Hello everyone! I just want to share with you all how well Rosie is doing. When I joined this forum I was as inexperienced as they come, and due to all of your help and wonderful threads, I've managed to turn things around for Rosie. As stated in my first post, Rosie was subjected to severe...
Hello everyone! I hope that you are all doing well. I just want to find out, will it be okay if I give my leopard tortoise, Rosie, a little bit of fruit once a week?

Goodness, thank you SO much for this care sheet. I actually haven't come across it and I am very happy to have it now. And also grateful to @Tom for posting it. I have only been on the forum for half an hour and already there is great support. Thank you.
