I've seen worse of course. I would never try to intentionally harm him. I am improving his diet. Like I said, he's active. His shell is nice, he poops good. I honestly didn't realize his face was so different until I found the old picture.
As long as I know it won't like "kill" him, I'm ok. I...
Ok, so on the left is a more recent picture of him. On the right is a picture of him I first got him years ago. I mean, obviously he looks a little different but it's not like something absolutely terrible. I just need some feedback. I'm obviously going to file his beak, but otherwise he looks...
It's not deformed. It's the lighting haha its just a normal little beak, trust me. If it was deformed, I'd be taking him to the vet. I'll get him off the pellets. And I'll look more into trimming for sure

I've tried taking a picture but they're so small it's impossible to see them... they're like the size of a tip of a pen, honestly. I just buy the coco fiber from Petco. Should I try maybe something else? He just loves to dig and get dirty though haha I'm scared changing something will make him...
Hey there.
So recently I discovered little tiny black bugs in my tortoises enclosure. It's mostly around his water bowl area or if we spray it and we don't lift up the rocks enough, they'll come around. They don't seem to be on the dryer end of the enclosure; just the water area. Should I be...
How can you tell if your Russian tortoise is gaining weight? I'm not really having this problem right now. But he loves his food Haha I was feeding him twice a day. But I stopped and only feed him once. Because a lot of the time he wouldn't even touch the second helping later that day. I don't...
