    Moving out of state - moving tips?

    Hibernate wasn't the right word. :) He has a heated house and moves between that and the outdoors as he wishes. He is slower/not as active during our cooler temps, which is more what I meant to say.

    Moving out of state - moving tips?

    Hi all, Haven't been here in a bit, but you guys would be able to help me think through this! Our sulcata, Stanley, is probably in the ~65lb range. He was about 55lbs when we rescued him and he is noticeably larger, so that's my best weight guess if it factors into your suggestions. My...

    Minor freak out here.

    What size is your table? Amazon had plastic greenhouses that work really well, I think they're aroind 48" by 23" or so. If that's about the right size, let me know if you need help finding what I'm talking about.

    Sulcata Tortoise Looking for a Home in ARIZONA

    I'm not far at all (half hour or so) if they still need help. We've been kicking around the idea of adding a sulcata to the family for a bit now. Have a setup available and can hang on to the little one if they still want to search for an owner, as well.

    Epiphyllum Part - 2

    What a beautiful plant. I'm going to look into those - I have a small (~20 or so) collection of various orchids, so an orchid cactus seems to be an appropriate addition to the family!

    Shell Growth Healthy?

    I think I recognize that tortoise. :) Sierra View? If so, you'll be pleased with the little one. I purchased two hatchlings from them, they arrived yesterday. They're perfect and hit the floor running - ate well and great shells. I think you'd find the baby to be smoother than it appears in the...

    Outdoor enclosure EXPANSION (with lots of pics)

    Thank you so much! Just took a ton of measurements and am going to get to work shortly. Just FYI (and convenience if you use this again!) there's an option at the bottom of the page to convert measurements to feet/inches. :)

    Outdoor enclosure EXPANSION (with lots of pics)

    Your outdoor expansion is absolutely amazing and such a huge help. We are planning an outdoor enclosure next year and this has given me loads of food for thought. Would you share the site/program you used as your "blueprint"? I think maybe I would finally be able to convey my plans to my...

    Chris Leone- Garden State Tortoise & Hermanni Haven

    I purchased a hatchling leopard tortoise from Chris, the baby arrived yesterday. Chris was great with communication, answered emails promptly and was more than just "all business" which I appreciate. When opening the box, I had to laugh at the ticked off creature contained within. Thankfully...

    Not getting any reply from seller

    Very glad! Hopefully the mods will get rid of this guy once and for all. I don't think I ever updated here but I did receive my $ back from PayPal as well.

    Jacqui bumped those threads letting everyone know he was probably not who he said he was. He hasn't posted anything new.

    Oh, we don't need to give him the benefit of the doubt. :) He emailed me as one name and one of the others who's also been scammed as another. Using different email addresses and names, pretty obviously a bad guy.
