    Is Pebbles... Dying?

    I'm extremely stressed out. Pebbles is a young (around 4ish years?) Red Foot. I'm almost certain female. I made the mistake from buying her from a pet store, and not a breeder. I honestly didn't want to have to sit on a wait list with someone, and I did a lot of research before hand and...

    Vegetables vs Plants?

    Someone recommended I use Tortoisetable to know what is safe and not safe to eat, but I am noticing almost all fruit and vegetables say "feed in moderation" or below. A lot of flowers and leaves, however, are all great to feed. So if her diet mainly consisted of plants (leaves and flowers), with...

    New to Tortoises!

    Hey guys! I'm Kiara and I live in Kentucky. On Valentine's weekend, I finally got myself a tortoise! I've wanted a tortoise/turtle for about 10 years, so now that I'm living on my own I decided to get one (: Her name is Pebbles, she's a redfoot. I eventually want to get a second one and get some...
