I think they are adorable! I too am thinking that I need to get one for Christmas and certain holidays. I saw a bunny one that I thought was adorable. I at first thought of just cute but then thought it would be good to be able to keep up with my tort if she is out in the yard. Ken love the balloon!
Today at Lowes I was asking the sales man which kind of wood I would need for an outdoor project. He stated treated and then asked what I was building. I stated that I was building an outdoor enclosure for my Russian Tortoise, he told me he was not sure if the chemicals would be safe for her. I...
I like the name Zachary for a boy, then you just call him Zach.... Bernadette is my little girls name (or so I have been told she is a girl). I found a box turtle in college and named him George Strait..... :)
I am building a Tortoise Table this weekend and I am interested in how to keep the humidity up using one as well.... I am planning to have an upper level, will the humidity be better under the second "floor" if I keep it moist in that area?
Dougie I am interested in what style of table you have...
When your on the phone with a business and their associate asks about your tort by name and then tells you that her daughter now wants a pet tort after hearing about yours! (FYI I told her to check out tortoise forum to research and ask questions before deciding)
I so wish I knew my baby girl's birthday..... maybe I will just celebrate on 05-22-15 the date I got her..... but I think she is probably around 2 years old. Your little man is to stinkin cute! And I don't think we can love them to much! ;):p
I have taken the time to sit down this afternoon and plan the outside as well as the inside measurements for Bernadette's new enclosures. Please let me know if I am thinking big enough for my Russian.
The outside one will be in a raised flowerbed about 2 1/2 feet tall made out of cinder blocks...
Hi Sam, I am a newbie as well and I have a Russian Tortoise. I got her for my 4th wedding anniversary and I just love her! I thought I knew what I was doing by talking and taking advise from the store where she was bought but it was all mainly wrong. You are in the right place! Tom as well as...
Thank you everyone! Bernadette and I are enjoying your messages. I just put some ointment on her larges hole and she is sitting on my computer table watching me.
One of the areas is open, how long do I need to keep her indoors? There is one small hole that is deeper. Will it close up eventually? Maybe I am just being a worry wort but I want her to be happy and healthy.
Here is my baby all bandaged up. I feel like a bad Mom... I should have been more protective but I don't have issues with Nick (the Bulldog) until my hubby gets home.
I am the new Mom of a Testudo Tortoise. I do not know how old she is as I got her at PetSmart. I tried to get her tank here as much like what she had in the store but she seems unhappy with it. I saw a kids swimming pool on Pinterest and got one for more room but had to put on the back porch as...
