Oh yes, when he eats he eats quite a lot! He will eat about every other day. I purchased him from theturtlesource.com so I doubt he has any medical issues. I could be wrong, but I doubt it. I feed a large variety, each week the food choice is switched up. All new veg, and fruit. Temp is about...
No no no, when I used his diet, he had a heat bulb that emited small amounts of UV. I know I sound like a moron, but I wont use heat emitters. They scare me, I want to see when the device is on or off. I was told to stop using the heat and use only the UV, to help him want to eat. Right now in...
I tried Terry's meal plan, and it really did not work for me, or my tort. He has no intrest in eating daily, he picks and chooses what to eat, and if there is nothing he likes in the mix...he wont touch it. As well as the fact that I use a pellet diet, which he does not like. I went by Terry's...
I probably don’t have any right to post this but as far as my genetics knowledge goes, genes (traits, alleles) cannot build up. Hence Douglas would be correct. As only ½ of an organisms genes come from one parent and ½ from another, the likely hood of it acquiring multiples of the...
I have tried to blend it all together, and Turds wont touch it. Wardo (The BTS) eats it like crazy, but Turds only looks at it. I buy only SilkWorms and some butterworms...way to big for little Turds...
Occasionaly I feed him the same meats that I feed my Blue Tongue Skink. Only about once a month, I will feed a little bit of chicken or other white meat. He never eats it. I have tried cat food as well but he wont eat it either.
Howdy,
I was on here a year or so ago, but slowly lost touch. I own a young RedFoot tortoise named "Turds". He has some issues, but we are working hard to fix them up. I was a horrid owner to him, for the first few months I had him. I was feeding the wrong foods, I could not hold the...
I have fixed the "NO AQUARIUMS" issue by placing paper around the cage and using a "Flap" of paper on one side so I can close it or open it. It now works just like a rubbermaid but looks a whole lot better. I did not "Skimp" on housing I went by what the breeder and people on this site told me...
I will be getting a larger tank for the new guy and him. A 30 or 40 gal. long if I can find one. He really does not move around his tank a lot, he digs a hole in the ground and sits in it and thats about it. I feed every 3 days as, he will not eat every day, I have tried feeding every day then...
Ok, his Night time temp never falls below 70F. I use the supplement when I feed him cat food (2 to 3 times a month). I don't use a quartine with my tort. as I buy from one supplier and he is great. He is in a 20 gal. long tank with a mixed bedding. He has moss in his hide. I will add pic's hang...
