Hi everyone.
I have a three year old male. I haven't hibernated him yet and am extremely anxious about his first time. And was wondering if it is absolutely necessary to do this with a domesticated bred pet. Looking forward to other carers concerns about this.
I'm a concerned carer.
I have a 2 year old Marginated Tortoise male. I've been plagued by tiny flies mostly around his table. His urine is very pungent and he's terrible at drinking from his dish. So I soak him twice a day hoping he's managing to absorb some fluids. Is there anything available...
I have a 2yr old Marginated Tortoise. Recently he/she hitches himself up to wee and I've noticed that there's what appears to be his inside protruding while urinating and goes back inside his tail once finished. Is that normal?
It's a large tortoise table. He's usually out more than basking. He'll either chill in a small hide or he loves snuggles with my hubby and myself. But the slight gasping only happens with me.
Hi everyone!
I've noticed sometimes if my 2yr old Marginated Tortoise will open his mouth slightly, poke his tongue out slightly and the best way I can explain it is he sounds as if he's gasping. Any ideas?
Unfortunately I keep reading conflicting information about tortoise edible herbs. My one year old marginated tortoise “ buddy ” so I'm very interested in other carer's experience's in what their breed enjoys and what's toxic....?
Hi everyone!
My year old marginated tortoise isn't drinking and shows signs of being thirsty. Is it ok if I leave him soaking daily, or does he need to drink?
