Okay! Thank y’all! I’ll be taking him in as soon as I can!

Oh gosh :/ yeah I’ve been seeing lots of babies with those..poor things :( nope I sure don’t, he’s my only one

He doesn’t seem to be bothered by it..so strange! Just eating right now

No I haven’t...I’ve looked him all over...it’s just the one on his eye. It seemed like there was a little piece of skin over the corner of his eye yesterday, but I left it alone thinking he’d shed it or get it off on its own. This morning it was about the same..then this evening was when I...

I purchased him/her from a breeder here in Louisiana..I’d say we’ve had it a close to two months now.

EDIT: I feed him the greens daily, but the pellets twice a week as a treat

My almost 3 month old sulcata, Thor had a bump show up on his eye this morning. He’s not acting any different, still eating, drinking, all the good stuff :) His home is 85 ambient, basking area is 95-105, humidity is 80-85. Night time doesn’t get below 83. I cut him grass from outside like...

Thank you, I really appreciate your kind words. ? I bought him from a breeder here in Louisiana. She has a totally different setup for her babies, they stay in a 10 gallon aquarium with a heater on the outside to keep it warm. Most she sells, then keeps the picks. Once they pass the “baby...

youre right. I really thought I was doing the right thing by taking him to see a vet, but I’m just glad I know better now so it won’t happen again if he can pull through this. I’ve been keeping a close eye on him. It started about 4 days after he came home. I was keeping his ambient temp at 75...

Yes, unfortunately I thought it was the right way to go at first :/ I plan on building a custom, kind of similar to the one on the care guide. For now, I am just going to do the best I can...I’m at home everyday so I’m able to keep a close eye on all the stats...thank goodness

Okay, thank you! Last night his ambient temp was no lower than 82 & today I added some small plants to hang over him, so the humidity has been between 80-87. This is totally off subject, but I had to take Thor (his/her name) to the vet Monday & he has URI. They gave him 2 shots, one was an...

I am planning on building a custom home in the future :) For now, I’ve purchased new bulbs and now the temp is 80-85 at night, 85 - 87 ambient and basking area is 96 - 100, cool side of the house is 75-80. He's feeling much better today too!! Humidity is between 70-80, if it drops close to 70 I...

I read the whole thing, it’s fantastic! I really appreciate your help! Thanks so much! I feel much better knowing what I was doing wrong! Want my little guy to be happy in his home

He’s a month old Sulcata tortoise, thought that might help XD

It’s my first time posting, I finally created an account since I’ve received great advice from so many forum topics here. Moving on :) I have a tortoise house, it’s 2x3 ft. and is 12 inches tall. I am having a hard time maintaining an overall temp above 80°. His basking area is about 90° At...
