    Is his shell okay?

    Thank you. Would you look at the fist pic of his rear and see if you can tell if he needs to have his shell filed. His tale does not come out and from what I can tell his poo is flattened as it is coming. Wondering if this is an issue or looks normal. I DO have a vet I can have take a look at it...

    Is his shell okay?

    Is soaking him a good idea if it is cold? I can heat his house up but will that be enough after a soaking?

    Is his shell okay?

    He has a floor to his house. Our other houses do not have floors so that we can moisten the ground to go with the heat. We use ceramic heat lamps at night. His house came with a space heater hung on the wall above his reach.

    Is his shell okay?

    His house is not sealed. We are doing that next weekend. It is sturdy and strong but drafty. We are sealing the edges and corners and then working on insulating it. He puts himself in it around 4:30 in the afternoon for the night.

    My New Baby, Now What?

    So we finally received the neglected ornate box turtle. He is super cute, 2 yrs old. He was in an indoor 10 gal aquarium filled with dirt and fed cat food and grubs. He had no lighting or heat and buries himself all day. When he is out, I am told he paces. So, what would be ideal to switch him...

    Russian Torts looking for a home

    I have just acquired some new items to turn into tables. They will require some work to get them tortoise ready but that is the goal. When you get ready to find homes, I might be ready. I do not have the outdoor enclosure finished yet either. I put a cage on the grass right now where the grass...
