Hi! We started the process of building a 60x60’ (approx) yard for my 5 tortoises! It was supposed to be closer to 60x72 but the grading we had done was the biggest we could get. We are still trying to tweak it to maximize the area. I’ll put up progress pics as we go! I honestly have anxiety...

I was going thru my photos and decided to post pics of my new 480 gallon pond (4x8)that we built a few months ago. It houses my 13yr slider, 2 goldfish that my kids won at the fair 2yrs ago and a new baby calico colored koi. First Day Lots of bolts! I swear they were the most expensive...

My pool guy found this guy in the street and I was guessing he was an (Testudo Horsefieldii). Am I right? I'm trying to help him and hoping he joins so be nice;)

Can you guys please help my friend ID this guy? She found it and put him in her backyard.

Just took a few pics since the winter greens everything up so nice. It usually really brown and ugly from our summer heat. There are two RF pens, a 1.5 yr old sulcata that was just moved to the bigger space and a space for a yearly desert tort but he's not in there yet. Future desert tort...

Hi, we brought home a cutie on Sunday who's 3 months. I was wondering if there is a way I can get him to slow down his eating? He just gobbles it so fast. I'm not sure if it's even an issue, but you know when you bring home a new puppy you want to do everything right in the beginning. Does...

So I bought 7lbs of pasture seeds from grow organic and I want to plant it properly in my outdoor pens. Is this a seed you just throw down and keep wet? Or lightly rake it in? I'm starting with just bare dirt. I have a bag of peat moss so I was going to lightly cover the exposed seed and keep...

We cut down a palm tree and I was thinking that there could be a way I could use them in my pens! I'm not a creative person at all but I was hoping you guys could brainstorm and give me some!

My dog brought in a baby that just hatched. Do I put him back in the nest I think he came from?

I grabbed some hummingbird butterfly mix for the yard but then looked up some of the seeds and some are safe but a few I couldn't find info on. Does anyone see anything that isn't good?

Are these safe? They are kind of a silver color and soft.

I was just curious about what kind of dirt to buy to add to my pens? I was going to buy in bulk like 10yards from a local rock co. Any ideas? I have heard of clean dirt , but don't know what it is and if it's safe?

@Tom Is this the stuff you recommend over and over? I just need approval before using it.

I believe it was in one of my tortoise seed mixes.

This is Willow who showed up next to our pool last Sept at 39g and 2". She is now 140g and 3.5"!! She is the sweetest little thing who loves to nap while soaking and eats like a horse!

My friend is in SA for her HS reunion and snapped a shot of this guy while on a tour on a reserve. I'm surprised he has so much pyramiding?

I posted about this one in the gardening thread but it was before it flowered. These weeds are all over my property. Any ideas?

@YvonneG are you near Kevin Norred? He found a home but no pets allowed. He is selling a bunch of chain link type kennels. Check out his FB wall. Wasn't sure if you needed anything. Or anyone near Hollister, Ca Sorry, I accidentally put it in the wrong place. It won't let me disregard or...

This meeting is in Balboa Park where the SD Zoo is. I have never been to the meetings but wanted to share!

I found this on my FB. Yes, the tort turned over on it's own.
