Ahh, ok, I understand!! ? Thank you! Then I Will just leave it be, I SM trying to have as little possible of “unatural” things internering with him, fx only pre alpin food and foraging food from the wild, I never give him anything from supermarket ? Do you know if it is best to put him outside...

Aww thank you! I Think so too! He isn’t afraid at all and he is very curious ? Sometimes he even stretches his neck and head towards my fingers in the morning, so he can be rubbed, first he stretches the head to one side so I can stroke him gently on one side of the neck, then when he is done...

Ahh ok, that makes sense!! There is a lot of calcium in the water Here, so I just thought that would be good for him to drink and his Shell (although the calcium goes through his system without much of it being absorbed) ? He hasn’t had urates in a long time, I Think it is because he stays...

Here are some pictures of his eyes and 2 pictures where one can see the left eye and the right eye :D I think his left eye is more sunken than the right on these photos

Here are some photos of his enclosure :D We usually have a planter also, we have 5, but they are regrowing at the moment as he has eaten them ?

Ohh ... I actually have soaked him every day since I got him in September. 15-50m every day, he loves morning baths ☺️ The water is between 32-35 celsius. What could the cause then be? Maybe I can take a picture from the side when he wakes up so that you clearly can see the eyes.

Thank you SO much! I greatly appreciate this, this is genius ❤️ I Will try tín find b way to at least close his table in some degree, I am sure that will help! I will send pictures when he wakes up ?

Hello, fellow tortoise enthusiasts and tortoise owners! The last 3-4 days, our tortoise has been a little white on his growth rings. I am very afraid that this can be the beginning of rot? When I scrubbed him lightly today, it didn’t come off. Or is this merely caused by dryness? It is very...

Now he is eating the Pre Alpin all on his own, hooray! :) Thank you so much for the advice! :)

Hello fellow tortoise owners/lovers! I have a Hermann's hatchling who is 6 months and I bought an: EXO TERRA REPTILE UVB150 fluorescent bulb, T8 / 35,4335 inches / 30 W My enclosure measures 49,61 inches x 49,61 inches, hence the long UVB bulb. But the watts are pretty high - do you know which...

Hello, thank you so much for the advice and I am sorry for the late reply! I have been trying to do as you say, and I have mixed pressed cucumber (I pressed it in a garlic presser) together with the Pre Alpin Fibre and Pre Alpin Herbs that I have grinded a bit in a coffee grinder along with my...

Hello you all, thank you so much for your last answers about my 2 tortoises who unfortunately turned into 1 due to our circumstances/space. How long can my baby Hermann's tortoise that is 5 months go without eating? I have had him for about 2 weeks, and I have tried getting him accostumed to...

And maggie3fan, I didn't see your message until after I'd given the small one ... So I couldn't really do anything at that time. I hope I can manage this <3

Thank you so much for all the answers <3 We didn’t have room for both, so I went to another very good petshop, were they had the right food, lightning and everything, and he said that it was better if we kept the bigger one as it seemed stronger. The smaller one also gets a tortoise table on its...

Hello you all! I am a new tortoise owner and I love this forum! First the backstory and plain information, in case you are going to ask about all the usual things: We got two 4,5 months old hermann’s tortoises about a week ago and the pet shop owner told us that it was fine to have them...
