Just wanted to say thank you all for giving me advice in the beginning and seeing all the advice given in the past, I'm so glad I found you when I did. I thought I had everything together, but there probably would have been pyramiding due to ambient humidity issues, and he has a nice varied...

Please help - respiratory infection We had bark as our hermann tortoises substrate which was suggested to us. We think he must have caught himself on it or some furniture and has had sepsis as a result. We took him to the vets for a course of antibiotics (10 injections). The sepsis has gone but...

New here not sure if I’m doing this right but I’m so stressed and upset 😭 today I realised my younger tortoise died and I’m unsure why (the end of last year I thought I was going to lose him but thought he was attempting to hibernate not sure 😭) He always slept a fair bit so didn’t think much...

My 2 year old hermann just did this weird liquidy looking poop in the bath. Does anyone know what this is? Should I take him to the vets ASAP? I’m really concerned :( Please help

I have fasted my hermann for 3 weeks now with daily soaks, where he also drinks, he started to poop a couple days ago but never managed to get it all out. I was waiting for him to pass it ready to put him in the fridge today but he still hasn’t had this poop come out. Do I wait another week and...

Bath time for Kepler, my eastern hermann buddy c:

Hi, I have a 2 year old Hermann. I just was wondering if anyone could tell me if these are the first signs of pyramiding? I am worried about him :(

Hi all I’ve had my Hermanns now for about 2 months and it’s going well! However, just wanted to see people’s opinion on who active she has been for the last couple of weeks. She is only about a year old and and has been pretty active through the summer which is when I got her, but as the...

Hello, we just moved to North Carolina and our 3-year old Hermann has an outdoor enclosure. This will be our second winter with him, but the first one he was indoor only. Does anyone know if Hermanns can stay outside in the winter here? If so, what kind of setup do they need? Or, should I...
