We made Sheldon his first temporary enclosure. I know it should be bigger, but if I keep it like this it will be mobile. I could move it around to keep his food supply going. Opinions welcome. I’m in Michigan so any outdoor enclosure will be somewhat temporary.
A new “exotic” pet store opened by me and I wish I wouldn’t have went to check it out. There was a hatchling Eastern Hermanns on sand with just basking light in a cattle water container on the floor where little kids were picking it up. Ugh. They also had 3 different species of chameleon housed...
I was explaining to a friend 2 days ago that I wanted to post a picture to see if my 2 year old Hermanns is a boy or girl. This morning I woke up to HIM defiling his frog statue friend. Mystery solved! ?
I was reading Tom’s outdoor enclosure bible and I have a stupid question. Do I need to bury wire so my Hermann’s doesn’t burrow or dig out? I was thinking about ordering this enclosure. Any thoughts welcome. Keep in mind that I know it would be appropriate to build something but I’m pretty sure...
I need a gender neutral name for my new addition. It’s a pretty big decision based on how long they live. So far my family has come up with Mr. T. Any suggestions?
Hello,
I’ve been researching tortoise care in preparation for a new family member. I’ve read lots of posts but just decided to join. I’m frustrated with availability in my area (Michigan) and don’t want to purchase from a pet store. Online ordering seems risky also......
