Hello
I had 2 tortoises for almost two years ago.
I was told that the oldest being 7 years is a male. And the other is a 4 years old female.
Today when I went to feed them I saw an egg above the ground that wasn't there this morning.
I thing it was underground. But now the weather become...
hello how are you. I have 2 tortoise.
sometimes they disappear underground for hours. and all night.
my questions are:
is it healthy? should I leave them until they decide to come out by themselves?
and most importantly how do they breath underground?
thanks much I'll go to the vet and to a pet store to buy whatever they need.
I did separate them this morning.
and for the water bowl they have it but in the picture I remove it to wash it.
is the diet product like mazuri diet nesssary?
they are not available in my country and shipping...
yes. the bigger one eat more and not as active as the smaller one.
but they eat well although they prefer lettuce more than anything. but I try to give them variety of food.
cucumber - okra - pepper - cabbage
and I'm trying to make them eat carrots but it is not an easy task at all.
but...
I just got them actually. I bought them from a store and the put like 50 one in the same space and inside the store. and they all were in a y codndition. and they just feed them lettuce. and little to no sunlight just a small heatlamp.
I let them outside in the house yard most of the time. but...
yes I have two tortoises. this is tha smaller one. And I sometimes catch the bigger one hitting this with his body. but the shell never looked liked this. in the early morning I set them free in the yard but in the afternoon I get them inside because it's too hot in the summer it's around 33-39...
I found some blood in my tortoise shell this morning. I want to know why and how to treat it.
please help me. [emoji26][emoji26]
these two pics from both sides.
I always read that mazuri diet is the best for tortoises. but I can't find it in my country. and I can't find it online either.
but what I found is vitakrafit diet. is it good? have you tried it before?
]really?? [emoji32][emoji33][emoji33]
the pet shop my husband bought them from said they are Greek.
but then again tortoises are not common here so I think he didn't know about them.
he also said that the small one is female and the bigger one is a male.
now I'm not so sure about that...
