    Clicking

    Reptiles may not have diaphragms but I've never seen any of the herps I keep or breed (leopard geckos, crested geckos, iguanas, chameleons, bearded dragons, etc) move their heads and limbs when breathing, of course a tort is very different and I'm not use to his little behaviours yet. And the...

    Clicking

    Yes I would rather have it checked over and on record at my herp vet just to make sure everything is all good, small price to pay just to make me feel better lol From what I was reading I thought maybe the clicking and pumping was an exaggerated attempt to breath but his little eyes are clear...

    Clicking

    I've searched the forum for "clicking" noise and have only found little bits and pieces, some suggest it could be a resp illness and someone else said it was normal? My little tort is eating well, a good sized dish of fresh food a day but he/she makes a clicking noise all the time. It also kind...

    Is this a greek?

    No it doesn't feel soft to me. And she/he was puttering around a bit today which is reassuring. She is in a exo tera tank until tomorrow, I need to rearrange my herp room to make room for my tote set-up. I attached a pic, any suggestions let me know :tort:

    Is this a greek?

    He/she is adorable either way and I am extremely happy with my tort but you know how a LOT of the time, especially with reptiles, what your sold isn't necessarily the morph or specifes you were told it was so I was just checking :) There is a slight size difference between greeks and herms...

I keep and breed other reptiles and had done business with this particular store owner a few times buying/selling different herps but unfortunatly the owner was not able to meet me at the store as planned. Instead the store manager was...
