Hello,
I am offering up my group of Radiated tortoises to CA residents only. They are kept outdoors and eat well on Mazuri, grass, greens, etc. I can't figure out how to post pictures here, but I do have pictures of them all. Please text any questions to 530 three two zero 9185 or message me...
Hello all,
I am having the worst time with earwigs and spiders in my enclosed tortoise enclosure. :-( I can only guess they came in with the substrate and/or live plants. What is the best way to get rid of them? Thanks in advance! :)
Thank you Mark! I went to Golden Pond in Loomis to get some ideas of different possible plants, then felt overwhelmed with choices! :-O I had your list that I wrote down at your house, and they had much of it (except for water hyacinth and water lettuce, which they deemed as "weeds.") :-( I...
That's why I figured I'd ask here, so it's information that others could share and learn from too. :-) And that's how I feel about reading lots of the other threads about species I don't have. I really do love to learn and soak it all in. :)
Mark is awesome and always my go to for all turtle (and most tortoise) questions. I feel bad asking him all the time!! LOL. (He is also who I got my spotteds from. ;-) )
Hello!!
I have recently acquired a small Waterland tub for my sub adult spotted turtles, and would like to have a really nice, pretty, naturalistic dry side for them. What substrate would you suggest and why? What plants would you recommend both in the water and on the land? Any other...
Hi all!!
What is the best, most non invasive way to lower the PH level of my turtles' aquarium? I've read about different products and such, but I'm looking for folks' actual experiences. Thank you in advance! :-)
Hi Bill,
In reviewing the form, it states, "Native Endangered and Threatened Species." Eastern Indigo snakes are indigenous to the US so they would be covered. It doesn't sound like radiateds are. :-( Do you know people who successfully used this for radiateds?
Thank you both for your brutally honest information. That's what I was hearing too from a good friend who has worked with exotic animals and various tortoises for over 20 years. He said that even accredited zoos aren't able to get them. It just makes no good sense to me. I didn't have the full...
Hello all,
I've heard that these are extra hard to get now, with some very experienced people not getting renewed, and some zoos unable to get their CBW. :-( Is there anyone with experience that could share how someone successfully got one? I know it will take a while (if it's successful.)...
Here are my new Burmese Stars from Mark! They are already out exploring their environment. The enclosure is from Mark too. What awesome, healthy critters, and these enclosures are the best thing EVER in reptile keeping!
Hello!
I wanted to post pictures of the enclosures all set up from Mark. One is for my SA Leopards, and the other is my new Burmese Stars. I CANNOT recommend these enclosures enough!!!
I actually bought two that were custom made so that I can have two separate ones or one large one.
I would contact Mark directly for his price sheet. He has TONS of different options for any possible need you might have. I *seriously* couldn't be happier with my enclosures, and can't recommend...
