    The Hip tortoise!

    No where does it say that the recovering alcoholic has had the tortoise from a hatchling. There fore whatever you are seeing in his shell may or may not have anything to do with how he is being cared for now. I think it is great that they are both caring for each other, and I can guarntee that...

    Russian in Alexandria VA. Needs help ASAP

    What has happened with the Russian? Has some one adopted him as of yet? I would still be interested if some one could get him to me.

    Kale but not Spinach?

    The key to feeding tortoise's is to think of them like your kids, be more concerned about a "varied" diet. You wouldn't feed them the same thing every day. That way if they are missing something from their diet one day perhaps they will get it another day! Mine being outside for the summer have...

    strange sulcata sounds

    Yes I have heard my 5 year old male sulcata make noises like that. He was having stomach issues to say the least. Too much fruit for a day. He is fine now but he makes noises quite often. I think he just likes to be heard:)

    Bushes for hides

    I am wanting to plant some bushes that my torts may or may not eat but would use for hides mainly. But I want them safe for them to be around. Any suggestions?

    Hello

    I know some suggest that, however the two Red foot and Russian have been together for over five years with no problems. The sulcata is relatively new to the mix but outside they all keep pretty much to them selves except for the Red foot (they are a pair) in a 30' X 60' area. I keep their area...

    Russian in Alexandria VA. Needs help ASAP

    If you would adopt him and ship him to me I would pay you the $20.00 I have four tortoise's now one being a russian. They have a 30' X 60' outside enclosure. They have a great 4' X 8' enclosure for 3 of them in the winter. I would sure take him but I am too far away for them to let me adopt him.
