    Winter food

    Just a FYI I get dandelion greens from Meijer but they do not last very long. I found in my experience they last about 3 to 4 days max. So buy only for a few days and not a week. On the other hand collars green last a llloooooonnnnngggg time. So buy small amounts of the selections mentioned...

    The Great Gatsby

    Gatsby update. He is gaining about a half a pond a month recently and since I got him a few months ago he has gained over two inches in length. Enjoying warm grazing and anxiously and nervously awaiting the cold weather and see how his high tech box does in the cold. I have alternate plans if...

    The Great Gatsby

    Gatsby just crossed the two pound mark. Loves grazing and soaks. He goes in his hide all by himself every night. He came to me terribly pyramided but rest assured he is in prime care.

    Question. (cuttlebone)

    I have cuttle bone in with all my tortoises. My Sulcata 600g 6” yearling likes to nibble almost daily but all seems good. My Sri Lanken Star 32g 3” hatchling and my daughters, @Toilandtrouble, Redfoot 48g 4 1/2” hatchling both have pieces of cuttle bone but neither seem very interested. At what...

    Meet George

    Welcome. You seem to be doing everything great but I did want to ask about humidity. I notice your tortoise has some pyramiding and the soaks are great but they really need humidity for proper health.

    The Great Gatsby

    Gatsby has made such huge improvements since coming here near end of May. He really LOVES his soaks now and loves to poo in them. I actually think he laughs as he does it. He actually peed on my daughter who was holding him right before the soak. He is a professional grazer and enjoys weeding...

    Sri Lanken Star Tortoise

    My little Sri Lanken Star is doing so great. She is more shy then my Sulcata and Redfoot but thriving. The only time she has to see my other is during supervised grazing.

    Lets see some Redfoots!

    My daughters new Redfoot is coming along nicely. “He” is starting to like soaks and finally pooped his water not once but twice. Only a fellow tortoise owner would understand how good this is for a hatchling.

    Grrrrrrr pyramiding!

    From what I read it never really goes away BUT it will look better after a few years with more growth. Just an FYI Tibby is really not that bad. I just got my Gatsby about a month ago and he must have been in an extremely dry start but I don’t know. Take a look. I have him at 90% humidity and...

    Sri Lanken Star Tortoise

    Oh yes I have read that. I also have a juvunile Sulcata that's now about 600 grams in his own custom built home. Yes they live completely separate and only see each other when soaking in their own bins next to each other (not same bin but my Sulcata loves to stretch to see her over the edge of...
