    Walking into walls repeatedly.

    I have thought about these options, but my mom has three cats (and I live with her still)... And I really have no place to put a bigger tank, the room I want to use to put a bigger enclosure in is simply not an option according to my mother.. :(

    Yellow Woodsorrel safe for a Russian Tortoise?

    Okay. I gave it to him again this morning because it seems to be the only thing he'll eat right now. I mixed in his tortoise pellets and some grape tomatoes with it, but the stinker eats around it. :/ Later today I'm going to try to give him some regular tomato and see if he'll eat it instead of...

    Seeking Hideout Advice

    My Russian tortoise has a huge box for a hideout, it's about 12" deep and 9" across. He sleeps in it during the night, but hardly ever goes in it during the day. It takes up a huge space in his terrarium, though. I just recently made him a hideout using a Blue Bunny plastic icecream...

    Homemade Hideout using icecream container

    Well, My Russian Tort Jojo was digging obsessively in one corner of his cage. I figured he felt safest in this area. So I made him a hideout for that corner of his terrarium. It works perfectly for him, and he loves it so far! I figured I would share this easy cost effective hideout idea...

    strange twitching behavior and flaking skin

    Yea, a pumping movement. Thanks, it's good to know Jojo is okay. I got him from Petsmart so I have been watching him VERY closely for ANY problems. Just want to make sure this can't become serious. :]

    strange twitching behavior and flaking skin

    My Russian Tort is twitching when he rests. His arms twitch lightly. I have no clue what's wrong. Is this normal? And his skin is flaking, is that normal too? sorry I post so many questions on the forums, I'm just a concerned first time mother. And I want my Jojo to be a happy and healthy...

    cuttlebones shortage, where can I buy Calcium powder?

    Here in Indiana, cuttlebones are nearly always never in stock. There is something about a shortage going on. So I heard of calcium powder to mix in with my tortoise's food. Where can I get this? I don't recall seeing it on petsmart shelves. lol. Also, can anyone fill me in on what Mazuri is? Is...

    Would my Russian eat clover?

    Thankyou all! He hasn't touched the clover, but I put some Yellow Woodsorrel in there and it was gone in minutes! I hope he learns to start eating more then greens though, he wouldn't eat the grape tomato or banana in his dish :/
