    Safe decorative plant?

    I am in Florida, but I don't think that's it. No purple on it and the leaves don't come out as close as the Moses pictures I've found.

    Safe decorative plant?

    I have this stuff growing around my house. Looks like Spanish Bayonet, but it is not hard and sharp like the bayonet. It is incredibly resiliant and can grow quite large. I was wondering if it might be safe to plant along the outside of the sulcata pen for decoration. He wouldn't be able to...

    Lunchtime pics - sulcata and Russian

    I visited my parents' today and gathered quite a lot of clover and other weeds for the tortoises. My sulcata Tortellini and the new Russian Tortiana really enjoyed the treat!

    Weed ID

    I don't know of this helps, but I'm in in northeast FL. Also, I believe the second one can grow fairly tall, almost like a tree, but the stalk stays weedy and thin.

    ID help on new tort

    I understand the corners, but not the 4' fence. In any case, we will be making some adjustments today. And until then, I am watching her like a hawk.

    ID help on new tort

    The chicken wire starts at the top of the wood base. But I will definitely be watching her close to see if we're going to have a problem anywhere.

    ID help on new tort

    We have pretty much finished her outdoor enclosure. It's roughly 8'x6'. There is a heat lamp built into the roof of her house. I think she will like it.

    ID help on new tort

    Thank you! From what I was told, she has been kept in an aquarium her entire life, and fed grocery store salad mix. I'm suprised she looks as good as she does!

    Mixing Tort Species

    Ok, I figured that would be the answer. I guess I will have my husband get on building a new pen. The dogs will just have to lose some backyard space. :s

    Mixing Tort Species

    I have a male sulcata of unknown age that weighs about 25 lbs. He has lived outdoors since we got him a few months ago. Soon (probably this weekend), I will be getting a 7 yo Golden Greek tort from a coworker. My intention is to have my husband build a tortoise table indoors this weekend for...

    Heating my outdoor enclosure.

    I wish someone would respond to this. I was about to buy one as well, but I'm not sure if I should. It has just started to cool ever so slightly here in northeast FL and I want to be prepared. Sent from my SCH-I535 using TortForum mobile app
