Thank you for the reply! There’s not a whole bunch of flowers by me, and the ones that are in my yard I don’t know what they are and if it’s okay for the tortoise to eat. I was hoping to start my own garden, hence why I bought the plants. I have cat grass as well, but I heard that was okay to...
Hello! I have a 2-3 month old sulcata tortoise and I went shopping for plants today for his enclosure. I was looking for safe ones to keep in his enclosure, but none of the stores I went to have 1000% safe plants that you could keep in a tortoise enclosure, all of them only had ones that you can...
Hi! So I used to have a 20 gallon tank for my 2-3 month old sulcata tortoise which I quickly learned was not even close to large enough.
So, now I have him in a container that I used to use for my baby ducks that is 2 feet x 4 feet. I know it’s still not anywhere near large enough, but we are...
Thank you for the advice! I’ll definitely try some succulents :) I wanted to add some sort of plants in his enclosure, do you think I could put a succulent in there 24/7?
thank you! He ended up being able to get it off on his own, but theyre was a piece left on him and I was able to just get it off without him hurting :) Also thank you for the information on the fruit as I had read that it was okay to occasionally give them it :)
Yes it is still an issue.
I just soaked him about an hour or so ago before the issue started and I dont want to stress him out by putting him in there, especially since I just upgraded his enclosure and it probably already is stressing him out. Do you think if I soak him, it will stress him...
I saw him trying to earlier, but now he isn’t. I just don’t want to stress him out a lot by taking him in and out of his enclosure, especially since today I just upgraded his enclosure and it’s a big change for him.
Hi! So i have a 2-3 month old sulcata tortoise and today I brought it outside in a dog playpen where I supervised it 24/7. I gave it food out their, and today I decided to give him a cut up strawberry. It was 100% a strawberry and it doesnt have anything else in it. But when eating it, it seems...
Thank you so much for the picture! It helps a lot! Would you happen to know of a grow tent that is large enough for a sulcata until it’s about one year old? :) if not that’s totally okay! Thank you for the suggestion!
Thank you so much! I will definitely read it! :) Also, when you say closed chamber, what exactly do you mean? Sorry I’m not too sure of all of these words since this is my first tortoise ever and I don’t want to think it means one thing then get it totally wrong :)
Hi! I have a 2-3 month old sulcata tortoise and I recently found out his enclosure right now is WAY too small for him and I feel extremely bad. I found this bookshelf that my mom doesn’t really want anymore and I thought I could diy it into a tortoise enclosure. It is about 6ft x 3ft (not 100%...
Thank you all so much! This tortoise was for my sister and I kept begging my mom not to get one until I do all the necessary research, but I didn’t have much say in the matter, so this really helps! I’ve been taking him out everyday and put him in a playpen outside while he is supervised! Is...
