Hello,I am looking to adopt my turtle out to a person who has a little more experience with boxies. I am also sending an email to the breeder, so if he would like her back I will update the thread, but I would love to have someone interested just in case he is full. I've had her for a few...

Meet Balder! He's a Basset hound Rough Collie mix. I was called while at work by a frantic 14 year old who was worried he'd be put down. So at 11:30 at night I picked this dude up. It'd been a roller coaster ride. He's a sweet dog and loves people and other dogs, but eats my house. Yes EATS my...

Aroes got out of his feed tank and is lost in my boyfriends room. Any ideas on catching the snake other than tearing the room appart which we are doing now. I read on this years ago and its all fuzzy. Air vent has been closed. Thanks

Spook has come a long way! She's much more social with me, and it was awesome to see Vodka come running at the sight of me, now Spook does too! Granted, when she walks towards my hand it's not for pets but to tangle with my thumb, but her cuteness lets her get away with it. After one feeding, I...

I have Spook in a cement mixing tub with tons of drainage holes at the bottom on my back porch. It's beautiful and the seeds are sprouting! But I have black ants! Eeek! I myself have no problem with ants but I do not like the idea of them in the home with my tort. They haven't been seen swarming...

Ah my sweet Vodka gets to move outside for the Summer! Finally right? Her home is 6x6 foot kinda sorta. I just took extra plank wood we had and built box :) I had it outside for a year and it only slightly started to deteriorate in georgia's weather, so I put a thin coat of paint on it and...

Of my room that is :D Spook is finally being put outside for the summer! The night's aren't dipping below 55 any more and it is safe for her to be outside. This weekend I bought a cement mixing tub along with a Tickweed plant and some new (glazes) saucers to hold the water in. Everything is...

Spook has arrived! She (is being presumed a girl for now because of how her nails/tail look) arrived early today, at nine thirty instead of ten thirty. She was cold when I got her, so I put her in a warm soak and put her up. I plan on weighing and feeding her later, after she settles some. She...

http://atlanta.craigslist.org/eat/for/3940060245.html Looks to be an Eastern to me. Can't tell if the turtle is in good condition or not, one dark photo.

I'm getting a baby from shellfreak. I'm going to start the baby out in a 30 liter tubaware. I am new to both hatchlings and boxies, though I know diet and humidity differences. Any tips on raising them etc. I plan on letting the baby settle and taking it outside in a kiddie pool late in the...

My tort Vodka has lately gotten into the habbit of eating only the red leaves in her mix, and if then it's only two leaves. She's not eating much at all and I was wondering if I could try adding a small but of Mizuri to her diet to try and get her to be more balanced. Maybe wrap some up in a red...

Didn't know where to post this XD Step right up and learn how to turn your cute little baby faced tortoise/turtle into a mean, lean Princess stealing machine! For those of you who crochet/knit, you can now turn your tortoise into Bowser! Free pattern and everything...

So it's that time of year again, where I spend thirty min brushing my lab mix, and a week brushing my chow mix Naomi. I'm lucky Naomi enjoys her brushing, otherwise this process would SUCK. I thought I would share the humor of my girl with you guys. She has a patch I brushed for thirty min...

:tort: So I finally decided to stop posting everywhere and make a thread for just Vodka XD I was debating on her arrival post to be the thread, but the name is off and ah well. So here's going to be updates on Vodka's life with me :) Will post weights etc on her. But a little bit of back...

My dad took me and my boyfriend to Wallyworld today to grab some topsoil and a kiddie pool for Vodka today. The tortoise kiddie pool we have has sides too low, and is very small. This one we got was about a foot wider, and the walls are taller. Mainly scooped out her sand/cor out to put int...

So my little Russian girl Vodka is doing well, is eating like the little piggie I knew she would be, but a little outing triggered my memory and I remembered I needed to post this cute little story. First day I brought Vodka home, I gave her a few hours to settle down, and then my boyfriend...

My girl's skin is peeling pretty heavily on her neck and feet. I have been soaking her every day just to make sure her skin stays moisturized. I will be adding ground up carrot to this soak to hopefully get her to eat. Can anyone help with what is wrong with her? Thanks.

Hello. I recently acquired a new Russian T, and was told she was Wild Caught. I have had her three days now, and she has not eaten at all. I have seen her drink during a nice long soak yesterday, and I know she visits her water bowl due to the substrate that frequently ends up in there...

Before I found out coil bulbs were bad for my tortoise, I ordered this on amazon http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00361HC9C/?tag=exoticpetnetw-20 This isn't a coil per say, it's four long tubes that have been bent at the ends, the bulbs are relatively straight. I bought this tortoise and everything...

Not entirely sure where to put this, so I decided the enclosures forum is best. I have a perfectly sized Terra Cotta saucer for my RT girl to climb into, and get water. Problem is the pot absorbs the water within a few hours! I did not buy glazed while at the store a week ago since I was on...
