Huh. So, it was never soft or anything like that. It just looks like scars, but it had spread further out from the time I got her to when I stated treatment. There’s no crumbly feeling or anything. It looks like scratches in her plastron more or less. I’ll post photos later today.

She’s still interested in eating. I just have to pull her out of her cave first. After that, she’s pretty active. She’s acting like a broody teenager who doesn’t want to get up for school lol. Also, @ZEROPILOT I’ve been putting the athletes foot cream on her shell for a while per your advice...

For about the last week or so, Pearl has kind of slowed down her activity. She wants to spend most of her day in her little humid hide. The conditions in her enclosure are spot on (80-100% humidity, above 80 temps). I’m wondering if it’s because she knows winter is coming? Or should I be...

Awesome! I have a juvenile red foot, she’s my babe ?

Hi, and welcome! Tortoise people are my people too ❤️ I’ve been here for a few months now and that’s really the first post that I saw that seemed like the drama of Facebook. So, I wouldn’t say that’s the usual type of thing here at all! The people here are super quick to offer advice because we...

It’s probably going to be cheaper to build your own, based on the advice I’ve seen here. @ZEROPILOT may know someone though!

Following! I’m in TN. If you can’t find someone local I would be willing to meet you halfway ?

My red foot is slightly picky with greens. She’s not a fan of kale (same), but she lovvvvves collards (same... fate?)... and clover.

True. I’m fairly certain Pearl would eat me if I perished and wasn’t found for a while. Like the old lady who’s eaten by her own cats, but the tortoise version.

My Pearl does this too when she naps in her favorite spot.

Love the Rae Dunn lol ?

Omg that’s so cute I wanna die. I want to kiss it’s little noggin.

She’s so precious. I would love to give her a home, but I’m in Tennessee. I hope whoever you find gives her as much love and patience as you have ❤️

Sweet.

How often should a baby red foot be poopin? She eats like a horse every day, and poops like once a week. Am I not soaking her enough? I THINK she’s about 8 months old or so. her diet is generally things like Collards, Kale, Celery (stalks and leaves), sometimes a bit of green onion for flava...

How often does everyone change their substrate? I have a few inches of coco coir in the bottom, and I’ve topped that with like a half inch of cypress mulch. The enclosure stays around 80-90% humidity, and I’ve been super lucky not to find any mold. She usually poops in her water, but any ground...

Love it!!

No advice, I’m just here for entertainment. Your turt is crayyyy ? that pic of him climbing the fence sent me straight to orbit.

I’m really glad you posted this! When I had questions about sealing off Pearl’s enclosure someone mentioned flex seal. My first instinct was NOOO TOXIC. And I was also a little put off at doing something super permanent in case it went south. So I curious how it turns out for you! Side note—...
