Ok I have repti-bark in there. So just keep him on that? And not mix it with the jungle mix and coconut soil mix? My snake is also on repti bark and my gecko. I don’t think it’s orchid bark? I could be wrong. I’m too lazy to dig out the bad right now and look lol

Yes I’ve changed to red leaf lettuce for the time being. It’s the end of winter here in Detroit MI but as soon as the weather breaks I’ll be planting some things. For now I’m limited to the grocery store.

He’s not even 3 inches yet. And no they don’t know

While I have you guys 😂. I’m having trouble finding fine orchid bark. Everything I’m finding is bigger chips. Does anyone have a link?

He will have a bigger enclosure as he grows. He’s only a little over 2inches right now

Would u happen to have a picture showing what your explaining?

Hey Tort peeps ☺️ So Bill is doing much better. He’s eating every day and still prefers to hide most of the time and sleep but you guys helped me realize thats normal. He’s a baby!! And he’s a growing little man. His substrate is a mix between repti bark, fine coconut fiber and Pete moss jungle...

Hey guys. Bill finally ate, so relieved. He seemed to have work so hard at tearing his lettuce. I’m worried mayby I didn’t cut it small enough? He is a very tiny baby sulcata

I mean palm of my hand

They do not know. He’s is smaller than the size of my hand

HE ATE!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 He nibbled and is coming to the sound of my voice!! He’s coming around and my tortious dreams are coming true

Yes! Thank you! I changed out his substrate and it’s been holding strong and 70 or above. When my husband comes home at 4 am he checks it for me and it’s still holds 🥰

Bill has been home for 2 days and seems to be doing well. The only concern I have now is he still isn’t eating. Is this normal? Still adjusting mayby? Not comfortable yet? I watched his eat 3 days in a row at the pet shop. Im there almost every day. I’m pretty sure he is healthy so I’m hoping...

Correct for the ceramic heating element. And it is compact florescent. I will be getting the long tube I just need to find a fixture

Night heat I have a 60 watt coil and UV is a repti sun 10

I’m looking for a substrate that is safe for him to graze on? I soaked him and he woke up and was wide eyed. After his soak he walked to where I have the bark and started grazing so I moved a piece of his salad by him but that scared him back in his shell. I moved him right by his salad now so...

Also I have the same views as you on the pay shop gang. I’m experienced in reptiles but bill is my first tort. It’s sick how these people act. However I know the owner of this shop personally. It’s a small local mom and pop shop and i do trust them. I’m in the Detroit MI area and I actually have...

Is it possible he is just adjusting? He just came Home yesterday late afternoon. Mayby he’s just a little shy guy? And stand offish?

That’s his enclosure. Would u mind critiquing? He has a 100 wt head day bulb. His humidity was at 45 then fell so I’ll probably put some moss to hold humidity and something over part of the tank to keep it in.
