I can't keep his enclosure outside yet because I don't have anything to cover the top with so there could be fear of birds; crows attacking him. I however have a smaller box for basking in the sun but I will make sure to always keep the shade part on. There's not many snakes around where I am...
I always put my leopard about 2 year old tortoise in the sun. I live in Kenya so it's pretty hot and humid here already so I use the weather rather than the light bulbs etc.
2 days ago the box that I use to put him in the sun broke so he missed his sun time yesterday. Today when it was back I...
Hey
I'm about to get Coconut fibre for my leopard tortoises enclosure. Literally getting it this week or might even come tomorrow.
However I'm thinking can it make the enclosure too hot for my baby? It's already super hot over here. Right now it's night and the temp here is 82℉/28°C and the...
Thank you so much. I'm trying to get that done asap! Hopefully I can soon.
He never pees on the towel or in the sand. I've never seen it wet or felt it wet. He has before but when I'm right there so I normally change it almost immediately. He only pees in his soaking containers with water or...
In the morning he normally wakes up himself when I wake up. After soaking and eating he takes a nap. After a couple of hours I check if he's awake and if not I try to wake him as the sun is hot and nice to walk around and bask in during those times. After that I leave him alone until he wakes up...
Okay. Here is a picture of his enclosure. I know the substrate is sand and somewhat loam.. I'm getting coconut coir/fibre tomorrow or this week so please don't come at me :( The good thing is he barely walks around in there. I take him out to walk and then when I put him back inside he almost...
I also soak my baby's leaves to get dirt or any animals off it. It ends up being wet when he eats it. I'll try to soak him as much as I can too but he was a little puffy so I thought it could be water retention but I'm going to continue doing that.
No, at the moment I don't give him any...
Ever since that thread I feed him for now only Hibiscus leaves and flowers, Brittons wild petunia leaves and flowers and different zinnia flowers and leaves. Looking for other plants/weeds that I can get hold of over here.
Before the thread I was feeding him all these...
I was feeding him these plants that I was able to confirm on that website. Me being paranoid I wanted to confirm with people here so I posted on a thread. About 2-3 plants/weeds people didnt know of and they told me not to feed him anything if I werent a 100% sure so I eliminated those ones and...
Wowwwww! That's so cute. He's so cute ??
I found myself talking to my baby last night too. I think we all do it ?? About the rearranging looks like I'm going to be rearranging too :)
