Awesome! Was definitely hoping so!

Thank you very much! Tried to keep up with humidity for shell growth but Squirtle grew so quickly! Lol

Hello again everyone! It has honestly been ages since I have posted on this forum. Since around 2013 in fact when My Little Greek tortoise, Squirtle was still a very, very small tort. If you can tell from my old avatar. Turrning, 5 in October, I have always referred and believed for him to be...

I definitely will. Love how his patterns and colors have grown darker and deeper since he first arrived :) [hr] Not definite but he is between 5-6 months of age now :)

Been quite a while since I've posted anything. Busy bee at work & a few troubles at home. But a quick photo of our Greek tort, Squirtle :D Growing bigger & bigger by the day. Seeing him every day does make it a but hard to notice difference in size, but I def notice him being quite larger than...

Woot Martha lol Shares a name with me now :D

Good to hear its gone away in many cases. Whoa. . Topic title changed on it's own lol White Swirly Marks, like it :D haha

Re: Strange Shell Markings? =/ Thank you very much for the thread Tom. The dehydrating factor actually makes a lot of sense because in this situation as I've said, I've slacked a bit in our Greek tort's care. I used to soak every day, gotten down to two maybe three times a week. I'd spray his...

Re: Strange Shell Markings? =/ And is your Thor from what I saw from a recent post. Love that their colors are growing darker and more defined :D They're growing up!

Re: Strange Shell Markings? =/ Really?? Ahh I hope so. Had me pretty worried. Especially since I just found that spider in his enclosure a few hours ago. In his favorite hiding spot as well. I am deathly afraid of spiders, but I went full out scary movie status in killing this spider :@ lol...

Hello everyone. Been quite a while since I've posted. Been a busy bee at work, training for a new job position. I am the owner of a 5 month old Ibera Greek tortoise, Squirtle. He is definitely showing signs of growth, but I may admit with my busy schedule I have slacked just a tiny bit with his...

Anyone else grow up watching her movies as a child? Wishing you had this lovely child's bubbly & enthusiastic acting ability? Dancing along with her in her movies as a child and wishing you could have those gorgeous curled blonde locks just as she had. Shirley Temple, you touched the lives...

Your tort is absolutely beautiful :D They have the funniest ways of sleeping at times, for sure. Does seem he is getting acquainted with his enclosure & getting used to his surroundings. Very nice :)

LOL like "Why is this blocked? Why am I not allowed here? I must know and find out, or die trying" haha

Now that even though not proven, is definitely a scary thought. That our little critters would actually want to cause harm to themselves :( Are there other ways to tell if your tortoise is stressed? What causes them to become stressed out? [hr] I may move his pots a bit from the corner. I...

Definitely wasn't shy to endulge when I wasn't around lol Thank you :)

Thank you very much for the lid idea. I currently use the lid of the container to mostly cover the enclosure to try & keep some humidity in as I also struggle to keep it high for our hatchling. The pot is pretty tall for him, but I have seen him try to climb over or try to squeeze past the...

Hello again everyone. Well it seems despite changes to his enclosure, I still find our Greek tortoise hatchling flipped over nearly every day. Once last week & 3 times this week :@ Nearly every morning when I wake up, he's flipped. Moved his half log out, added 2 pot hides, blocked corners...

I would also love to hear other opinions about this subject. I currently have the exact same issue. Having to spray my substrate to get a higher humidity which only lasts a few hours even with a partially closed enclosure top due to my MVB which dries a majority of it quickly. Where did you...
