we have a fairly large back yard, but we have a bit of a fire ant problem. I have 2 options. I could have an elevated enclosure, or have a smaller enclosure on my front porch.Which should I do?
I live in Tampa Florida (West Florida), and I was wondering if getting a Russian Tortoise would be the best option. I've not had any other reptiles and I want to make sure the climate here is suitable with a Russian tortoise.
I have been preparing to get a russian tortoise for a few days now and im making sure everything is perfect. My backyard has giant trees blocking out most of the sun. Is it ok to put the enclosure under the trees, or do I need to find a sunny spot? Thank you
Hello! Im from Tampa, Florida and Im looking into getting a russian tortoise. Ive researched their behavior and im planning on getting a male. What are all the required items to care for one properly. I need to know what kind of enclosure, what should be inside the enclosure, the type of lights...
And this is a bit embarrasing to ask but, the males have there "man parts," but do they ever...uh...pop out? I dont really want to see a turtle trying to do it with anything
Im incredibly new to the whole tortoise scene, and I was thinking about getting a russian tortoise to start. I was just wondering what are the chances of a female getting pregnant without a mate and whether I should get a male or a female? Thank you :)
