I guess I could ship him, I've heard of people doing it but didn't know if it was safe/recommended. I'm still figuring out how to upload pictures here, but he's the little guy in my display picture
Hi all,
Sadly, my living situation has changed and I can no longer provide my adult male Russian tort, TS Shelliot (pictured), with the outdoor space he needs. I'm upset, but also know that it's the right thing to do for him. He's captive bred and I've had him for 4ish years.
Please let me...
Welcome! It took my Russian (pet store purchased) over a week to start eating, but he sure made up for it when he did! You'll quickly learn that patience is the key to having a pet tort - they kind of do things in slow motion sometimes ;) good luck!
