Thanks for all the kind words. I have tried an tried to figure out how things ended the way they did and can't figure anything out. We had lots of rescue sullies this past winter and Timmy was the only one who got sick and he wasn't even the youngest or smallest sullie we had. I guess sometimes...
After a long bout with a respiratory infection Timmy has passed. For those who didn't know Timmy got sick several months back but was able to make a strong recovery it seemed but even arizonas triple digit days weren't enough for him to fully recover. He seemed to be back to his old self for...
Do a search for timmys tiki hut. I live in the Phoenix area and it gets nice and hot here but the hut stays cool in the summer and stays warm in the winter. I uses to live in NC so I am well aware of the weather you experience and think it would be a good solution.
The ambient humidity is not as important as a humid sleeping box. Has the little one decided where it likes to sleep? If so place the humid hide there if not you will have to put him/her in the hide every night until they get the idea. 50% is great for ambient you just want to give daily soaks...
So at about 10 this morning I looked outside and Timmy was out on his feeding rock in the sun and eating yesterday's leftovers! First time he has come out on his own in weeks. I put out more food and he promptly went back in the hut. A few hours later I turned on the irrigation and took him out...
No problem ascot I just didn't know where that came from. My coworker has since been able to give me a birthdate on Timmy, and when it's said like that I can see where you might think that. In reality she has one clutch of eggs each year but doesn't incubate the eggs so if they hatch great if...
This is the same one i posted about a while ago. I am watching him as carefully as I can that's for sure. The weather is deffinately going to be getting better for him soon but I'm just not understanding how only Timmy is the one that's sick when there are younger smaller torts but who can say...
What's an RI? I'm outside Phoenix AZ, he is peeing but since he drinks so much water it's really clear and has a slight green tint to it. No white goop just clear pee. I can't believe he could have gotten dehydrated I know it's been a very dry winter with very little rain but I still run my...
He is now the largest of the three, until recently I had two more that were lots bigger. They eat grasses and romaine along with mazuri. It was about a month ago I noticed he stopped coming out of the hut so I gave him a soak and he drank like a fish and seemed to be having trouble breathing. I...
My other two which are basically the same size are still being normal, outside everyday and always hungry. He seems healthy no trouble breathing no nasal drainage he's just tired all the time
I know that sullies don't hibernate but I'm curious if anyone's does. Timmy has been acting very weird lately and I thought he was sick or getting sick. I think he was just a little dehydrated I brought him inside for two weeks of close obsevartion and extra heat but he just seems to always want...
I know this isn't the right place to post it but I have a male sullie I wanna give to a better home. He is about 30 pounds give or take, well maybe 40 haha. Let me know if you want him via pm or response, will not ship since he is free. I have to focus on my own little guy since he is sick.
Probably should have given more info, Timmy is just over 3 years old and about 10 inches or so. He says outside with a the other torts here in Phoenix. It does get cool at night here in the winter but I have a tiki hut that goes underground for them all to hang out in. It currently had 2 150watt...
Ok guys Timmy is sick, I'm pretty sure it's respiratory infection. He's not interested in food and when I gave him a soak this morning there was bubbles coming from his nose. So what sort of medicine should I give Hume and where do I get it. I'm in Phoenix AZ so I hope someone can point me in a...
This was a big blob of a thing and it kinda flared out on the ground and it moved it back and forth on the ground. It's really hard to explain but it did resemble a mushroom I guess, so boy or girl
Ok so I just took in 3 new sullies and one I know is a boy the other is still to small but the third is about 13 inches and I was unsure until a few moments ago. I was watching it eat when something came out of it's vent, I am guessing this means it's a boy right. I was leaning towards male...
