Laying in bed this evening I've heard what I would describe as a "hack" about 5 times in the last 2 hours. Upon closer examination I noticed my older/larger sully has watery eyes. I haven't been home much the last 5 days but was home this morning and never heard it once, but all of a sudden this...

A few months ago I moved my little sully out of the tort table and into her own 120gal glass aquarium. Her substrate is coco coir and reptile moss I ordered off amazon from Josh's Frogs, mixed with play sand. I keep it pretty moist in there to help with humidity, not soaking wet but moist. This...

So ... I got my 2nd Sully (although I have rescued and rehomed several) almost a year ago at a reptile show. She was a baby when I got her. We spoke for almost an hour with the seller, who said she bred them herself, at great length and went over several questions all while closely examining all...

Last night my 4yr old sully threw up. First time she's ever thrown up. No changes in diet and her appetite today hasn't been good at all. I will continue to watch her but I was wondering if this has happened to you and why it may have happened? Do they just get upset tummies sometimes? Any...

So I just picked up a Sully that someone didn't want anymore because of it's size ... this guy was BEYOND ignorant! We go into the back yard where they're keeping the turtle and I look down to see this poor baby who appears to have some collapsing issues. Bend over to pick the tort up and it's...

Okay this is SERIOUSLY freaking me out! In the past week this has happened to the bottom of her shell, and it's SOFT! I'm talking about the new pink growth. I just know this can't be right. Should I stop the Mazuri for a while? She is under proper heat/uvb. Someone PLEASE tell me what to do, I'm...

Ok, so as some of you may remember I have a sully that had stopped eating and want up to normal size for her age (extremely small, actually). Since starting Mazuri about 2 months ago she is back to eating like a PIG! The concern I have is that between 1/24 and 2/22 she has gained 33 grams! Is...

Ok peeps, I'm starting Mazuri tomorrow and need to know - Do I add it into her diet slowly, and if so how do you suggest I best do so? How often is it to be fed a week? Is there anything else I need to know? I have a small sulcata. Thanx in advance to all the responders, I greatly...

Anyone else have cute pics of their tort giving someone/something a piggy back ride? Thought I'd safe this - Sunshine met our little bearded dragon babies in the bath for the first time today lol I don't think they bothered her at all :)

Just curious on what scales/brands people use to weigh their small torts. Which one's are better compared to which ones are cheaper?

Ok peeps, I live in central Oklahoma. I would like to give my tort as much natural sunlight as possible, but I don't really know what temps are ok. My average temps are as follows in farienheit November - February are all below 60* March average is 62* April average is 71* May average is 79*...

Ok, so nobody had ever mentioned to me that I need to be weighing/measuring my tort until I joined this forum. I weighed her today and @ 22 months she weighs 92 grams and is 3.25". Is this a normal weight/size for her age? And also how often should I be weighing/measuring her?

Ok so I feel I've made great progress in the care taking of my tort since joining that forum! One MAJOR thing if like to fix is interaction between my tort and i. I was told when I bought her that when they're little you shouldn't handle them much. I handle her at leave once a day, but she is...

OK peeps, I went from a little 20 gal terrarium to the tort table we just built last night - I still have to finish the house and buld the lid today, and go get more substrate. Please everyone, give me your opinions!!! I would like to caulk/seal all the wood, and kinda need advice on what is...

I got my tort in March, 2010. I don't know exactly how old she was when I got her, but she was a baby (and a cute one)! We are approaching the 2-year mark and something has gone wrong in the last few months. "Sunshine" has stopped eating, and has no interest in anything besides sleeping under...
