This is Moby! He is a little over a year old and about 340g. Taking a huge drink! Anyone else's torts do this? Moby drinks like this daily.

In the past, I tried to help a friend's little sister in caring for her tortoise. Apparently she isn't taking care of the poor thing well enough, and doesn't even want it anymore (can I just take a moment to say, UGH WTF??? - why even bother???). I want to learn about this species of tortoise...

So right now I have my 7 month (or so) leopard tortoise in one of those 20 gallon concrete mixing tubs. I'll attach a picture below. He seems perfectly content in here, but what I am worried about is the humidity. I know leopards must grow in humid environments, and soon Wisconsin will not have...

Was scrolling through facebook today, and came across a friend of mine who had just got a pet tortoise for her son. I know for a fact that she is not going to care for this tortoise properly, and it truly makes me SO MAD. I commented to her telling her that I am always more than willing to giver...

Going to make a post here for a weekly photo and weight of my baby leopard, Moby! August 25th - 70 grams

Got Moby an Aloe plant for his indoor enclosure today and he already loves it!

This just happened today, and there's no hostility. Not possible out of this little furry being named Farrah, and she's only here under supervision. Moby had no care in the world that the kitty was including herself on dinner time.

This sounds strange, but I just noticed this today. My leopard tortoise, Moby, has a lighter spot under his chin than he did just yesterday. And it's a significant difference. Any ideas on why? Should I be worried? I just took him to the vet on Monday, and it's happened since then. I will...

Yesterday I took my 5 month old leopard tort to the vet for the first time! I've only had Moby for a little over a month now, so I wanted to go in and see if I had been taking care of him correctly. The vet I took Moby to is Dr. Shawn Hook in Madison, Wisconsin (on the tortoise vet list on TFO)...

Hello all! My name is Melissa, you can call me Mel if you please. Currently living in a small town called Mukwonago, in south eastern Wisconsin! Now, what we're all really here for... the tort!! About a month ago I introduced my baby leopard tortoise, Moby, into my life. This is my first...
