Hi :tort: fans! With a heavy heart, I need to rehome 2 of my youngest Radiated Tortoises. Eats well, very smooth shell and colors are coming in real nice. White growth lines on the carapace and pinkish on the plastron; both signs of slow and healthy growth. Going on a big family trip for 5...

I recently moved a hour and a half within the State of Florida with my 6 year old confirmed female leopard tortoise. At our new home I was able to build her a much larger habitat that’s she had previously. Her previous habitat was 4’x6’ rabbit run and her new habitat is a 16’x16’ solid fence...

Lady Boxsworth female red foot

Red Foot 2

I just got this guy(or girl). It was abandoned at a friend’s house by some people that moved. She knows nothing about it. Because Herman’s and Russians have different enclosures and diets, I want to do what is right. Thanks in advance.

Hi I have a one female Russian tortoise and a male Russian tortoise living together in a tank. Neither one of the tortoises have shown aggression to each other they have both been very nice to each other no head banging no ramming of their shell no hissing no biting. The only thing here...

Hi everyone, I have a 3.5 yr old/12 in./10+ lb. Sulcata in need of a home. I'm not asking a fee, just that you are experienced and have yard space. I would like to deliver my tortoise to see that he/she will have a good home with outdoor space. For this reason, I need someone in the Southern...

Hi! I have four marginated tortoises and I'm curious about their sex. I'm still in doubt about if they are male or female. The tortoises on the first two pictures are 7 years old, the last two are around 5,5 years old. Can you tell already? I'm thinking two male and two female.

I've been lurking on this site for a couple years. I have a 10 foot diameter, 2 foot high planted stock tank that I've prepared for tortoises. I'm looking into buying a couple adult female russian tortoises because I may want to get into breeding a few years down the line once I have more...

You guys ever catch your Torti in a compromising position? Well now and then I'll walk by or check my camera to see what Heidi is doing. Today I caught this girl stuck in a tight spot. It's funny because you can literally see her pausing to figure out how she's going to maneuver her way out of...

Time has come to sell my two leopard tortoises. I am selling them because I am attending University in the Fall. They are currently living in my family's large backyard in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I have had both of them since they were hatchlings, purchased from a private breeder in central...

Hello, I hope you all are having a good day. My box turtle is not active and has not been eating much. Once in a while, he will eat a worm, but that's it. His setup is a large square "pool" with dirt logs some leaves a fern and a water bowl. I've tried berries, but he just does not eat. Any...

Hey I am looking for an adult female sulcata. I recently had one of my female sulcatas die and I have been looking to get another one. Does anyone know where to get one?

Hello! We are redesigning our outdoor enclosure for our 20-30 year old CA desert tortoises. We are making two enclosures, one for the female, one for the male. ideally we would divide the existing long and narrow enclosure into two side by side runs, with one shared solid wall Down the middle...

This is Ruby, my 15 year old horse-field’s tortoise. She is in good health other than the problem described below. Ruby had a white ring around her shell about a few months ago, and I went to tortoise forums for help. All and each response I got was that this was normal, and would go away at...

I have a male and 3 female Russian tortoise. My male and female we’re fine together for six years but in the past two weeks I’ve added two additional females and ever since he has been super aggressive trying to mate. But he is nonstop biting running from one to the other so I’ve ordered a new...

Hello friends, my female redfoot laid eggs on the ground without burying them, and was doing some "automatic" digging movements near them but not really digging, then she left to take a bath at the "pool", she lives with a male redfoot and they are not fighting. She never did this before...

Hello my name is Alissa and I have 2 beautiful, 5 year old Marginated Tortoises Elvis and Elsa. Before purchasing them I built my own tortoises table and did intense research so I could be prepared for anything. The only thing I am unable to identify is the difference between Female and Male...
