    How harmful are insecticides for tortoises?

    thank you for the feedback! Very much appreciated :”) I hope you’re doing well after Covid :( I don’t think we have echinacea here. Even if we do I think it will be too late. I asked my mom today apparently my tortoises seems fine and they’re not showing any signs of poisoning yet

    Thank you for the feedback Lyn, also thank you for the help in the past! My tortoises got much better and i managed to solve the food problem, but now this happened. I would say it’s my family’s fault. They’re the one who didn’t take the right action from the beginning. The people who were...

    How harmful are insecticides for tortoises?

    Thank you very much for the feedback. At this point im completely helpless, its 1:07 Am here, and absolutely angry. My family decided to tell me hours after the spraying. Im sure they got exposed to it and probably inhaled large amounts of it. I only hope its not a very dangerous type.

    Fussy Sulcata help ?

    Exactly like my Greeks.. They're giving me a very hard time. One thing worked for me is reducing their meals. I used to give them 3-4 meals a day, but I noticed how picky they have become so I reduced their meals to 1-2 a day. They are still very Fussy but better than before.

    Two questions about my Greek's food

    Thank you for the extra information! Yes the plant is from Asiatic dayflower family, bit different from the one in the link but I did a lot of research and I found that it's safe. I will try not to feed them too much from now on.

    Exactly like my Greeks, they are addicted to lettuce, which is bad, and would rather starve themselves than eating anything else. It took me some time until I convinced the Lil brats to eat other food ?
