I want to rehome my female African Dwarf Mud Turtle because my overly enthusiastic male will not leave her alone. She is one-year old and very friendly. I want her to go to a dedicated turtle hobbyist. I would love to keep her separately but I have too many tanks already! :oops:

Hi everyone, I joined over a month ago but I am posting here since I am still a newbie and I have not gotten my Hermann's tortoise yet. The hatchling will be arriving the second week of Oct. My concern is the powersun mercury vapor lamp in the mini deep dome fixture. I have it positioned over...

Hi everyone, I just joined the forum because I am getting my first tortoise in October, an Eastern Hermann's tortoise. I currently have 3 cats, a parakeet, and a red eared slider! I look forward to learning as much as I can about tortoises!
