It is working, no problems, haven't weighed him lately but he's great eats like a tank, def fat and happy. I am happy with my results thus far I geuss I'm just worried about the danger if that tile cracks but I can rig a screen under it to catch stuff if that happens. I also wanted to see what...

Im familiar with with this info as well as all the other care guides offered here. It's Great info that I do agree with and am essentially already doing except for using a basking bulb. In the past I always had used a basking lamp but I purchased this fantastic Carol S Tort from will @ kapidolo...

So I am not a fan of basking lamps or direct heat from a CHE as these heating methods can dry out the shell. What I do is create a "heat zone". I set a dome lamp with a CHE directly on top of a floor tile suspended at the correct height(about 8" above top of shell) for a nice 95-100° spot...

This is the biggest one I've seen... Sorry to be beating a dead horse, but I seem to be getting mixed feelings on this whole topic. I've read about some people who purposely introduce little cleaner bugs into their set up. I get right to the bottom of when I stir things up weekly and never any...

I can't tell you how many sites I've been to that people here recommended and as soon as I saw the words "barn raised" I was out of there. It really bothers me but as long as there's idiots like I once was buying them it will continue. Well it took a while but I did in fact find that captive...

To clarify, I do not have a tortoise. I didn't purchase the one from the breeder or adopt the female. Just trying to make the best decision on witch one Understood, thank you for you're insight. Yes he was loaded with worms and parasites.

Thank you I am very aware of all risks with pairs and groups, I have been living on this forum for the past 4 months, great knowledge from you and the other experts! I would only get one. I geuss the reason I'm concerned with her age and health is because 4 month or so ago, uneducated before I...
