In a sad attempt to make a long story short, me and my ex raised a mix pit bull (her mom was a red nose pit, dad was a blue nose..) since she was only 2 months old.. Her name was Izzy, and I loved her for soo long.. (2 years, and heres a picture of her :P lol! I still miss her..)
About 3...
My sulcata, Karasi, has been digging around in her broken pot hide lately, and when I took her out for a soak I saw that the beak looked odd. Is she wearing it down too much against the terra-cotta? Or is it just stained from eating her hibiscus? (orange..) I'm not sure, but I was just a bit...
Spoke too soon about my baby leopard Elias being super healthy.. This morning I took him outside when it was about 80 degrees, then brought him back in 4 hours later when it reach about 94... When it started to get hot I sprayed the enclosure, but I'm not sure if by me making his shell wet if it...
Every day I try to take my little leopard Elias out for some fun in the sun, but he always ends up hiding! He'll rummage about and maul every nearest clover for about ten minutes, then find his way into the hide and go to sleep.. Should I leave him there, so when he wakes up he can start the...
I have been taking my tortoise to the vet almost every 3 days for the past 2 months, and it's aggravating that her pink plastron the vet was initially worried about STILL hasn't gotten better.. They keep injecting her (in the skin between her arm and head) with antibiotics, but the pinkness is...
Hello everyone! Meet my little Leopard tortoise Elias! I finally got him this morning in the mail, and I have not been able to take my eyes off him since!! I have never in my life seen or let alone held a tortoise this small! I made this thread to show him off a bit, and post about all the...
Just got my new 1 month old leopard in the mail this morning from a member on here called Eweezyfosheezy! He is so perfect, and I love him SO much! I named him Elias. :) I just have a few questions, being that A: I have never gotten a turtle THIS small ever before, and B: I'm new to the leopard...
I live in Houston, and I would love to find someone who can really take care of a poor box turtle I've acquired that is about 13 years old (give or take) and has never been given the proper care it needs (foods, lights, etc..) I'm willing to drive her out wherever you are, I just want her to...
Since I've had a lot of requests, I figured I'd just make one thread where I can post all my creations as I make them :) I hope y'all enjoy!! and suggestions for my next pictures would be awesome! (I'm making a redfoot one now, then a high yellow box turtle one, any more after that will be made...
I posted a pic of my first creation, the 'I love Sulcata' art made with microsoft paint, and a lot of people enjoyed the idea and asked me to make more using different species's shells, so I did! I made an I Love Stars picture that I hope everyone likes! :D If youd like to see the sulcata one...
I was bored and got to doodling an idea for a tattoo I wanted (thanks Clare n for getting my brain going with your tattoo thread :D) and I figured I would share it for all the other sulcata lovers out there! :P I think it would make a great bumpersticker, dontcha think? ;) haha! :cool::tort...
Karasi will be participating in a cold-blooded beauty contest hosted by Petco on June 2nd and 3rd, and I wanted to get everyones opinion on what I made for her to wear! I was on a low budget, and when i made it i didnt measure her first... but all in all I think she's adorable, but my mothers...
I recently finished combining two enclosures into one, and I wanted to see what everyone thought! :D
I have petunias, a hibiscus bush, a few hens and chicks sedum, african merigolds, and bermuda grass growing in the little pots. :P
Also I made a little extra planting spot ontop of the...
Put three layers in my enclosure that I think I may have possibly done wrong... Bottom layer is cypress, less than half an inch, second layer is coco husk (the chunkier kind) maybe an inch or a bit more, and the top layer is loose coco fiber I got from the pet store about 2 inches. I planted...
I have three apple snails I got out of the ditch at our park, ranging from a little bigger than a golf ball to tennisball size, and recently I found a huge strip of eggs above the water line!!! I HAD to share it!! lol!
^ that long tube is actually a lung; they can breathe underwater...
It says they can eat petunias, pansies, snapdragons and so forth, but u wasn't sure if that was just the flower or if they could eat leaves too like with hibiscus and roses?
Due to many people begging me to change my poor sulcata's enclosure, I have done just that! lol, but I still feel like I could do more... plants will be coming in soon, but I was wondering if anyone with an eye for design could tell me where I could put one of those awesome burrow looking hides...
I need quick help from anyone who knows, I was told to get coconut coir, but here at the store they only have loose coconut fiber... Is that the same thing? :( or which is better?
Their little tongues get me every time!! :P I love everything about this little girl! :D Thought I'd share and see if she brightens anyone elses day.. or if i'm just entranced as a new mommy. :D :tort:
I took the photos out of a video from my phone, so please excuse the lack of clarity...
