Aha! Another Nyan Cat follower on TFO! :D

Jojo Enjoys some juicy romane. I added background music. :] http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=102581169887547&saved

I have thought about these options, but my mom has three cats (and I live with her still)... And I really have no place to put a bigger tank, the room I want to use to put a bigger enclosure in is simply not an option according to my mother.. :(

Welcome from South Bend, IN! Yay for Hoosiers! :P

Okay. I gave it to him again this morning because it seems to be the only thing he'll eat right now. I mixed in his tortoise pellets and some grape tomatoes with it, but the stinker eats around it. :/ Later today I'm going to try to give him some regular tomato and see if he'll eat it instead of...

Okay, thankyou all :] I removed the big box and he has been roaming all over the new available space, I think he likes it. :] I plan to build him an outdoor enclosure but right now my budget really wont allow it. :/

I am from South Bend IN :D I travel up to Lake Baldwin in Michigan all the time, though :]

My Russian tortoise has a huge box for a hideout, it's about 12" deep and 9" across. He sleeps in it during the night, but hardly ever goes in it during the day. It takes up a huge space in his terrarium, though. I just recently made him a hideout using a Blue Bunny plastic icecream...

I looove reading about Frankie! He makes me want to get a Sulcata of my own some day :] But right now Jojo needs all my love. :D

Well, My Russian Tort Jojo was digging obsessively in one corner of his cage. I figured he felt safest in this area. So I made him a hideout for that corner of his terrarium. It works perfectly for him, and he loves it so far! I figured I would share this easy cost effective hideout idea...

Yea, a pumping movement. Thanks, it's good to know Jojo is okay. I got him from Petsmart so I have been watching him VERY closely for ANY problems. Just want to make sure this can't become serious. :]

My Russian Tort is twitching when he rests. His arms twitch lightly. I have no clue what's wrong. Is this normal? And his skin is flaking, is that normal too? sorry I post so many questions on the forums, I'm just a concerned first time mother. And I want my Jojo to be a happy and healthy...

Thankyou! :] I will definately be making a trip to Walmart and Petsmart now. :]

Here in Indiana, cuttlebones are nearly always never in stock. There is something about a shortage going on. So I heard of calcium powder to mix in with my tortoise's food. Where can I get this? I don't recall seeing it on petsmart shelves. lol. Also, can anyone fill me in on what Mazuri is? Is...

Thankyou all! He hasn't touched the clover, but I put some Yellow Woodsorrel in there and it was gone in minutes! I hope he learns to start eating more then greens though, he wouldn't eat the grape tomato or banana in his dish :/

So I found some clover looking plants with little yellow flowers. I thought it was clover so I put it in my Russian Tortoise's tank and he LOVED it. Ate three plants of the stuff! First time he has eaten since he got here, too. But I looked it up further just to be safe I made a right choice and...

I have a 1 1/2" layer of ZooMed Eco Earth Loose Coconut fiber substrate with ZooMed premium Reptibark sprinkled on top. I will definately increase the depth of the substrate. Would it be an option to buy top soil from a garden store, lay that down, then use the coconut fiber and reptibark? This...

http://www.facebook.com/JojoTheRussianTortoise Jojo updates daily on his adventures in a new home outside the pet shop :]

I can't give him any bigger, or anything but glass, and he has a 40 gallon breeder tank to roam. I took him outside to walk around for a while, but he started doing it again when I put him back in his tank. I finally picked him up and put him by his hideout den, and he went inside and finally...

My Russian Tortoise is brand new, he's been in his tank since yesterday now. He has moved around his food and water dish a lot, and he repeatedly keeps walking and bumping into the walls. He also is always in a corner. Is this normal? Will he settle down? I put some plants around outside of the...
