If you can't provide for him when he's full grown or out grows the aquarium then your best bet would be to release him as long as you haven't had him for months.
@Kapidolo Farms sells a lot of dried weeds and flowers, etc, that could help improve a so so diet.
Also look for any of the online places that delivers. I can't think of the names of them, but there is one that sells "ugly" veggies that are not good enough for stores cuz of their appearance...
That looks like a sulcata not sure why you wrote Calcutta?
Anyway, he needs a closed chamber enclosure with humidity of 80% temps all over of 80-85 and basking area of 95-100, he needs this now.
The proper light is a tube florescent for uvb, an incandescent flood bulb 65 watt for basking and...
Yes, if it's still cold there, like it is where I am, 30's and 40's this week, then he does need to be set up with heat and uvb.
I think if you can get him set up in a proper enclosure, with correct temps and a daily routine of lights coming on then off at night and food after the morning soak...
You need to get him set up in his own enclosure with the proper heat, basking light and uvb.
If you can make him a safe outdoor enclosure then you can put him outside during the warm days.
He needs to bask under an incandescent flood bulb that reaches 95-100 and needs uvb at least 3-4 times a...
Only a couple tortoises should eat fruit, a hermanns is not one of them. fB, YouTube, they are lousy sources for care info for tortoises and most animals
The type of greens you can feed that are found in most grocery stores is arugula, escarole, endive, dandelion, cactus pads, spring mix with...
I recommend the basking light. Your tort needs light anyway and in a proper enclosure a uvb fluorescent tube light is not enough light. For Russians, a ceramic heat emitter is only needed if your area of the enclosure gets too cold during the day or at night. Tortoises bask in nature from the...
Dish can cause drowning hazard and no humidifiers or misters should be used either.
A large clay saucer for water that he can get into and easily drink and self soak
Dampening the substrate which should be orchid or fir bark or coconut coir will give the humidity needed
No disc type...
If you are dumping the cereal, open it and see if it at least still looks good.
I have a couple boxes from 2016 when the Chicago Cubs won the World Series, YAY and the boxes have my a couple of my favorite players on them. I did put the boxes in ziplock bags. So let us know how that old of...
How hot is it? Cuz you do need to set him up inside the house for now until he heals. Keeping him on plain wood, fake grass or plain brown butcher paper will work, switched daily and spot clean often, no substrate.
When he does eat, he has to be able to digest the food, they do this by...
Keep him warm, 85 day and night also give a basking area. Keep the wound clean and do not let flies near him. Give him some time to get over the trauma, the poor thing.
I have rats off and on in my area. I have never had them bother my tortoises. If there is always left over tortoises food...
She is a Russian and needs a 4x8 foot enclosure.
That substrate is wrong and needs changing to orchid or fir bark or coconut coir.
Humidity needs to be 50%.
Water dish needs to be bigger so she can fit in it.
The halogen light needs to go ASAP. You need a incandescent flood bulb for basking...
