Hes so picky, arugula, cilantro and the dandelion in the stores he hates. I tried mint too and he don't like that. I haven't been able to find endive to get him to try, is there some place you get that from? I started some seeds for him too of some weeds and flowers but they're taking forever to...

Hes about 4 inches. And he never really free ranges, im always within a foot of him. Mostly it's just on my lap or ill let him walk on the floor but I'm always right there. He tries to do all sorts of crazy stuff I'd never let him free range on his own. He tries to climb everything and would...

So I've noticed my tort eating a bit less over the past couple weeks. I understand that can be normal creeping into winter but hes also not a full grown russian. Was told he was 2 however I'm thinking he's a bit older given he is very definitively a male. I seen his boy tort parts the other day...

It's our first year torting, im sure we'll develop a collection. Got alot of weenie dog things, were 11 years in there.😂

Sharks first Christmas with us!

Hes abou3.5- 4 inches, 220 grams I think when I weighed him last. 1.5-2 years old, the lady didnt have an exact hatch date. I say he but not really sure. That's our guess for now. I ended up getting a humidifier for right by his enclosure and spray the cage twice a day. Everything dries up so...

Can the UVB be too close to the tortoise shell? I got a new light, T5 reptisun, and I'm figuring out where to put it? He's got a hide he goes on top of most of the day so I'd like it to be over that but that's only like about 4 inches from his shell with the wire mesh in between. My heat bulbs...

Okay, I've done alot of reading but lots of conflicting information. Where are your care sheets located on the site? This is really a great site, im happy to have came across it. From what I've read the arcadia uvb are good, I have dome lights now though. New setup, I've changed so much stuff...

Thank you! We're just getting familiar with him and it's kind of like having a new baby in the house, not sure what's normal and what's not.

I got this little russian guy a couple weeks ago. He's 1.5 years old, eating good and very active. I have however noticed he has a spot on his shell. It was there when we got him looking back at pictures. It's kind of flaky. There's also bubble looking stuff through the shell. The shell is not...
