Honesty, cognitively struggling right now, me and muscle relaxers don't mix. Seriously, in past few weeks I've made so many simple mistakes I would never otherwise make. I could use some help here I would appreciate some additional opinions. 5 is an outlier, it came to me messed up and has...

1.2 Burmese stars Seeking Cuora, Egyptian tortoises or other uncommon species $8000 for the trio, also willing to break them up. I have too many females. In in NC

Yes I know about the T.H.I.S. article, that's not what I'm looking for. I have a vague memory of seeing a vet tool that was used to either prevent a turtle from retracting it's head into it's shell or for getting it out of its shell. Does anyone recall the name of this tool? I don't believe it...

Been dealing with back and sciatic issues, so I'm behind on eggs. Saw one of my female Philippine Cuora sp had dug up an egg. Pushed through the pain and dug up the entire land area, found a few good looking eggs and ... this little one!

I need some help coming up with categories to encompass the diet needs of turtles and tortoises, for the the TurtlePantry project I'm trying to not just include a database of food items, but at the suggestion of those much more knowledgeable than I, include diet plans/categories. I need to...

Wooooooot. Gotta drive him home tomorrow

The tortoise table site, while great, has been having reliability issues, and well it is just too conservative in some ratings. If I put some spare server cycles into an open source data base (Where anyone could clone or download the entire database) would anyone else be willing to contribute?

Wondering if anyone has tried these. I'm always looking for new things to add variety to diets, especially in winter. I just planted mulberry trees so when I saw these I picked a small bag up. Their Saki turtle pellets are amazing (a bit on the high end of price esp when you have a lot of...

Any one feed pawpaw leaves? (Asimina triloba native north American, not papaya). Curious if it is safe/enjoyed

We sit on just under 9 acres, behind my house I've been building out a turtle yard and turtlefor our 50ish asian box turtles and tortoises. The other weekend I was moving water storage tanks with my tractor and almost ran over this EBT. I dont see many these days, ive only seen one on my...

I was supposed to take these and some radiata to UGA to get surgically sexed this year, but it has been a really hard year health, work, family wise for me so I never made the drive. Just for fun, anyone want to make a guess? These are my last remaining platynota, im probably going to trade off...

Never realized how beautiful these were until I saw them in person. Hoping for 1.2 or 2.1!

Given up on using drying racks/hanging dryers. My humidity is just too high here in the Carolinas to dry any quantity this way. Does anyone have recommendations for dehydrator or any method beyound one of the hanging drying racks. I used them elsewhere with great success but just not cutting in...

I am in need of photos of rare or uncommon (in captivity) species, subspecies, localities and natural color/pattern phases of turtles and tortoises. I'm not looking for photos of hybrids, intergrades, or "designer" morphs. I need photos of multiple individuals of each species, and will take all...

going to tag @Tom off the git go. I have a 2yrold ish likely female playtona, she has always been abnormal since I got her in 2021 in the fact that she is aggressive, and will bite/ram other tortoises. She has been housed alone except for a short period in January. Her temps are in the high...

Due to unfortunate circumstances, I received this 1.4 group, 4 different bloodlines to add to my likely 0.2 I already have. Can't say I'm happy to have them under these circumstances, but I'm glad I'm able to care for them. They have been kept out of water for a while due to the health of the...

She is almost 2 years old, probably 600grams, Her activity has reduced, she is pooping less, and eating less. Each time I soak her for the 10 days, the only signs of any urates is this white mucus. She is housed alone, indoors, and has been for at least 8 months (attempted to co house her...

Unfortunately this turtle was shipped to me yesterday in this state, I'm going to pick it up in a few hours from fedex. I was not aware of the state nor prepared for this. Any advice is appreciated. I've successfully dealt with fresh prolapses before, but this appears to be possibly necrotic...
