Simply amazing!!! I hope my Lenne the Leopard grows up looking that great!!! What did you feed when she was younger and what are you feeding now?? Thanks for the great pics, hope there will be more!

TNT is a dried weed matter for leopards and sulcatas, that is sprinkled over their regular spring mix and Immno-boost is a calcium supplement that people have recommended to me. I think I will hold off on those for now. What I am doing is working for me and Lenne. I want to thank both of...

I was told that d3 throughout the summer months wasn't needed. To bump it up to 3 - 4 times per week through the winter months? Is that still ok?

Her outdoor pen is half shade from the house, half sun for the first part of the day. Then it flips to the opposite sides of half sun, half shade from the trees and fencing for the rest of the day. It was not planned out this way but it is working. She has two pots tipped on thier sides, and...

Yes, you are right Tom about the sun supercharging them. As soon as she is outside wham!! she is on the go before I even get her out of my hand. lol. I do have to cut back her outdoor time. I was giving her 2 - 2 1/2 hours per day, thinking more was better for her. She does have many 2...

Should I limit his outdoor adventures then?? I don't want to stress the little guy out to much. Just until his weight is up a bit?? Thanks for everything.

I am very happy with her/he I will keep monitoring her/his progress. One question tho, when she is in her pen inside she just seems to sleep. But out doors she is just a going concern. Little miss busy body, go go go. Why would that be?? I am sorry for no pics, :( I have been trying...

Lenne is a busting 39g and 5 1/2cm. She seems to be doing well, enjoying her daily soaks, eating lots and enjoys her outdoor pen more than indoors. She sleeps while she is inside but is on the move the whole time she is outside. :) She is always looking for her chance to escape but I am...

I recently p.m.ed Tom about humity and leopard torties and this was my answer that I am going to follow step by step. I wanted to post so all could see and gain from his experience. Thanks again Tom!!!! So great to have you and the others here to help me out. I am not only new to Leopards...

I have been soaking Lenne for about fifteen minutes everyday since she arrive. (two days ago) She is not seeming to like it in her soak. She seems aggetated and fighting to get out. Will she calm down eventually or am I just stressing her out? She is a fiesty one, constantly on the move...

Her name is Lenne. Actually we are not sure if she is a boy or girl yet, so I figure Lenne is good for both. How long before I can tell the difference? Thanks all, she is a great addition to our little family. Myssie
