No where does it say that the recovering alcoholic has had the tortoise from a hatchling. There fore whatever you are seeing in his shell may or may not have anything to do with how he is being cared for now. I think it is great that they are both caring for each other, and I can guarntee that...
My sully makes that noise if he has eaten to much fruit in a day, he has a stomach ache. He has many bm's it is runny for a day. He mopes around, eats hay and grasses for a day and is back to his usual self. I don't normally feed him fruit but I put it out or my Red foot and I turned my back for...
The key to feeding tortoise's is to think of them like your kids, be more concerned about a "varied" diet. You wouldn't feed them the same thing every day. That way if they are missing something from their diet one day perhaps they will get it another day! Mine being outside for the summer have...
When they are inside of course that is why they are in separate enclosuress. Outside not as much. as far as hmidity. Part of the yard is more humid than the other side so I fiugre they can hang out where ever they want to. Food-- they are fed speparate any way. The Red Foot get Fruit in their...
Yes I have heard my 5 year old male sulcata make noises like that. He was having stomach issues to say the least. Too much fruit for a day. He is fine now but he makes noises quite often. I think he just likes to be heard:)
I am wanting to plant some bushes that my torts may or may not eat but would use for hides mainly. But I want them safe for them to be around. Any suggestions?
I know some suggest that, however the two Red foot and Russian have been together for over five years with no problems. The sulcata is relatively new to the mix but outside they all keep pretty much to them selves except for the Red foot (they are a pair) in a 30' X 60' area. I keep their area...
If you would adopt him and ship him to me I would pay you the $20.00 I have four tortoise's now one being a russian. They have a 30' X 60' outside enclosure. They have a great 4' X 8' enclosure for 3 of them in the winter. I would sure take him but I am too far away for them to let me adopt him.
what does it cost to adopt him from there? what would it cost to ship him to Ks. Find these things out and I would probably be interested I have a 30' X 60' out door enclosure and I have 1 russian already, I can't stand it.
Wanted to tell you about a treat I made for my Sulcata Sam. For the Red Foot Tort's I add apples, fresh pineapple, grapes, kiwi, strawberries etc. with the veggies. And leave out the Alfalfa pellets.
I rough chopped a ton of veggies:
2 yellow squash
2 green squash
lg handful of collard...
