    I was FLASHED

    So I posted a couple months ago and tried to get some opinions on the sex of my youngest tortoise. I got (her) in March '10 and she was just barely a month old. So i estimate she will be turning 3 obviously around March '13. The other day I walked past all the torts and the baby was crawling on...

    Tortoise Arthritis

    I've asked this before and at the time I wasn't really satisfied with the response I recieved, so I've waited and Im gonna try again. I have an adult leopard tort. Her previous owner had her for seven years and kept her on a hard wood floor. Because of the flooring, she basically swam around...

    little outside time on a busy day

    Marlin (sulcata) and Bumper (large leopard) get out on the balcony regularly when I'm too busy to get them in the yard. But this is Daisy's first time. Took a little pic for size comparison then she got put in her tub, away from the large stomping feet of the other two. Figure a...

    Crimini (white) Mushrooms

So if I wanted to let him taste a small peice would it be determental? Also where is the list of good leaves and grasses...

    Gets her head stuck

    So I have had Bumber for about 7 months now(she is an adult Leo though) and she does some pretty strange things. She has a horrible problem eating because of her beak. I hear her clicking it all the time. I have started trimming it little by little but she gets her mouth stuck open and cant...

    Pumpkin Leaves

    So for some dumb reason I planted pumpkins (the baby kind) in my Leopards enclosure without checking if everything is edible. Dont ask me why but I thought it would be kinda funny growing pumpkins indoor, and her enclosure was perfect.... but can she eat the leaves?

    New Born Baby

    So about two weeks ago I contacted this seller about buying one of his baby leopards. He was probably the most unprofessional procrastinating business person I have ever come in contact with. He rescheduled shipping multiple times and then apparently shipped yesterday and never told me he was...

    mazuri = constipation?

    I started feeding my one year old Sulcata Mazuri everyday. Since I started, in the begining of this month, he has not had his regular poo. Normally I would say it was a little soft but he had no problems. Now they look (his poo) completely solid and he looks like he has a bit of trouble. I still...

    Odd Growth

    I got Bumper in September of last year. She had a few issues with diet and she has a bad case of MBD. The last 7 years she grew up on a hard wood floor or the newspaper covered floor of her cage. Before that is unknown. I'm guessing she is around 20 years old. A couple months ago I was giving...
