Edger and James have been picked up and are on their way to their new home, we finally got connected with the lady we had been talking with! I'm glad they have a new forever home where they will be well taken care of!

I want to be VERY clear as I have gotten a few wierd texts that some people think that we will stop caring for them or that they are in some kind of danger? THESE TORTS ARE LIKE MY CHILDREN AND ARE VERY HEALTHY AND WELL CARED FOR! THEY ARE IN NO KIND OF DANGER OR WOULD I EVER STOP TAKING CARE...

I would start with some good spring mix and cut it up so it's small, once it starts eatting that start adding cut pieces of flowers ect.

We feed once in the morning and once again about 3pm, I wouldn't listen to your brother. Read on here you will find everything you need. I would rather them leave some food then not have anything to eat. We feed twice a day since we live in WA and they are inside, I don't like there stuff to get...

Do you keep your tort outside or in? Does he ever get out to the sun? The MVB is great keep that up, if you could get him out for some sun a few times a week that would be good as well even for a half hour. You guys have tons of sun there, I wish I had sun all the time where I lived, my torts...

Well they have been going outside once it hit's 70, I measure them every month and I was looking at everything and noticed he's really not been gaining weight the last two months, and being REALLY bad about eatting. I started feeding him inside before putting him in his outside pen, I keep him...

We take ours with us a lot as it is hard to find someone that will give them the care we do. They go camping ect all the time. We put them in clear rubber made containers with substrate. their normal rock for food and their hid box and they do just fine.

We have tried the flowers and all sorts of bright colored fruit even to see if he will even try it and he won't. We are going to try a little apple juice mixed in and see if he will try it. Thanks for your idea!
