Long tube 10.0

What closed chamber enclosure do you use/recommend?

Thank you!

It's a reptisun florescent

The baby is in our care now. Soaked as soon as we got it home and in a temporary set up until I can get a better one figured out since it wasn't a planned thing. Humidity is sitting at just under 60% by the hide. Baking side is just under 90 and cool side is around 80. Also has a UV bulb. I'd...

That's what I thought! Thank you for confirming. All I can guess is someone in the area had a breeding pair that they either let the eggs incubate in the ground (I'm in southeast Georgia) and missed one when they hatched or had the clutch outside and one got away. They don't sell them this tiny...

Thanks for the advice, I'll toss the sod, hasn't been there long. We have plenty of grass in the yard. I'll just leave one section uncut to collect for the sully. The guy I got my RFs from said his liked grass. 🙄 They're definitely more interested in the salads I make them and hibiscus

This is wonderful information. What are your feelings towards mazuri tortoise pellets along with grasses, weeds and other plants? I also have 2 red foot tortoises and bought them a few plots of sod and they want nothing to do with the grass... Only the weeds growing in their enclosure. 🤣 So...

I will work on that tomorrow. It just got done soaking and is now napping. Trying not to handle the baby too much since it's still so young. Plus it's had a big 24 hours. My sister's friend found it yesterday. But it definitely doesn't have the nuchal scute. I had sulcatas previously and when...

It's not a great picture. The spikes do stick out, but it moved it's leg right as I hit the shutter button.

Hi, my little sisters friend found this hatchling tortoise and thought it was a gopher tortoise. Just confirming that it's a sulcata. Looks like one to me based off the scute pattern and spikes on the front legs. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I recently rescued a hatchling yellow bellied slider. Someone had found it in an apartment that was getting renovated and was giving it away on Facebook. I have experience with adults, but I have never had one this small or with a URI. His right eye is shut and he does gape a...

Bowser is now safe and sound in his night box with the burrow covered. Meanwhile I'm feeling like I was hit by a bus from trying to get him out last night!

Lol, yea, I'm still trying to find the right time of year to cover it. Seems mid October is it.

I have an 8 year old sulcata and he has dug 1 burrow. I leave it open in the summer for him and lay a piece if plywood with some cinder blocks over it in the winter. I have very clay like dirt though, so I have no fears of it caving in on him
