So this morning while I was cleaning out Rambo's cage I noticed his scutes seemed further apart then I've noticed before. I was wondering if he could be growing? Unfortunately I got him from petco so I have no clue how old he is. I attached some pictures if that helps, sorry they're horrible...

Hey guys! I haven't been on here in SO long! So I figured I should post some pictures of Rambo! He's been doing great and now that it's summer I've learned that he enjoys trying to climb trees in my backyard :)

I was bored yesterday and found this... http://www.tiffany.com/Shopping/item.aspx?sku=GRP03271&mcat=148204&search_params=s+5-p+1-c+288216-r+101566536+0-x+-n+6-ri+-ni+0-t&cid=288216&fromgrid=1 Hope that works...It's so cuuuttteee! :D Maybe I'll get the $975 charm someday![hr] Probably not :P

Oh my goodness! My family friend has Boxer puppies and I am trying SOOOO hard to get my dad to let me have one! I'll attach some pictures of them, they're beautiful! Plus Boxers are like my favorite breed of dog. Lalalala, just kind of a random thread showing my obsession with puppies :D The...

I hate Petco with a passion. My new Guinea Pig had babies last night. She had three but one suffocated in the birth sack so we called a vet and they told us to wait twelve hours till we have to end up bottle feeding the other two. At ten I went up to bed and my mom woke me up at two. Another one...

So, I feel like I want to make my little Rambo's enclosure bigger. I was reading the post that's at the top of the enclosure section that has two totes together and I was wondering if that would work if I bought another tote like this...

Here are some pictures of my baby boy :) And I found this and thought it was adorableeee :)

Here's what he has at the moment, he's living in a 54 gallon rubbermaid tub. If you can't tell, the blue thing is his water bowl, the thing next to it is a flat rock the he eats off of. The white thing is cuttle bone, the green thing in the corner is his fake cactus, and lastly the bulb is a...

This is Nugget, his full name is Chicken Nugget :) He's a Persian Cat I rescued, he's two years old now. He tends to roll on his belly when you walk near him even though he doesn't like it when you touch his belly :P And I had to shake his food bag just so he'd look at me...

I was wondering how much humidity Russians should have. I can't find the exact numbers for some reason. Do they pyramid? Do all breeds of torts pyramid without proper care? I went to Petco a few days ago (one of my favorite things to do, it's like a free zoo haha) and I saw some Russians that...

I was trying to get some good pictures of Rambo with his tong sticking out :P It was a failure but here are some of him just eating! Nom Nom Nom! Mmmmm...Kale :)

I was bored last night and took this :) Happy Holidays! A few random pictures of Rambo are attached :)

So, I'm making a new enclosure for Rambo that I hopefully wont have to update for a while :) The picture is attached. Okay so the blue Frisbee is his water bowl and the bright green one is his food bowl. Under the screen top is his half log hide that you can barely see. The only thing left I...

Recently I've been having a few enclosure problems/questions. So first of all I got an MVB and it burned the top of his enclosure, I was soaking him and I had just gotten it and didn't know how hot it was and it welded the top half open. That was my fault and please don't like yell at me or...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7WE0owmuBQ I was going to post pictures but there were too many, so I made a slide show :P[hr] Just a sec... not workingg :/[hr] Grr, it's not working, I'll post it tomorrow :P

I think Rambo need more room so I'm going to ask my step dad to make the little guy a wooden enclosure. Do you think this will be enough room for him: 50" x 16"? I measured my dresser to be 56" x 19" then I took off a bit so it would fit good and I'd still have room for my tiny TV :) I'm going...

You'd think because I got Rambo off those horrible pellets he would seem happier, WRONG! He was finally getting used to his new life and settling in and when I changed his substrate he became sluggish. The new substrate was cypress mulch/coconut coir mix. Also, if you get really close to it it...

Okay so I was reading and someone said that UVA wasn't important. Is this true? Do torts (Russians) need UVA? Cause I just bought an MVB and I was wondering if it would be cheaper if I just got a UVB and a heat lamp (already have heat)? But would it affect the tort?

So I'm pretty sure the top of the bulb fixture where you actually put the bulb in is a ceramic socket right? Well both of the ceramic sockets broke off of my two light fixtures, once I knocked it over and about a minute ago my little sister did :( What should I do? One of them seems pretty...

So, I can't replace my Russian Tortoise Rambo's enclosure just yet but hopefully soon I will be able to! So how much room does he need? Lots of people have said some amount of square feet per inch of him and I was wondering what that ratio was? I will probably be using a Rubbermaid tub or...
