Hello everyone.

I was browsing on this forum for like a year now, and now finely i have decided to register and join you guys :)

I am an owner of a 5 year old Russian, that i have put/allowed it to hibernate for the first time. I have properly hydrated him so that he does not die on me from the poop in his system. I hope i got it all out!

I all so have a cca 1 and a half year old Leopard tortoise. That i got from a friend. Im a bit worried. Because i have it now for like 6 mounts and all of this time, this little dude haves that f'ing runny nose! -.-
And from others users photo's that i saw, i think that my Leo should be bigger. 80mm and 85g ??
Monday i will make a 'little' ride to the vet, cuz im too concerned!

And when the next exo-thingy-thing lol comes to my country, ill buy a pair of Pancake tortoise :)


Well anyway, this is me :D

Hi Nofx:

Welcome to the forum!

I think you're our first member who lives in Slovenia. I'd love to see your habitats. Its always good for us to see how tortoises are taken care of in other countries.

Hi Hi :)

I will post some pictures tomorrow because i cant find the cable for the camera..
I'm surprised that Im the only Slovenian guy here, well I hope I'm not ;)

Anyway, i live in the sea part of the country, so we have hot 30-40°C and humid ( very humid ) summers.
The winters are foggy and rainy, and the lowest temps are from 4°C to -1°C but this is all so rare and it last for like 2 weeks top!
Like i said, Im from the sea part.
Other parts of the country hit -30°C brrrrr

To finleafeater: ye punkrock all the way ;)

Don't mind the blue mark, its my way to see if she got any bigger, and she did, but i wont do this anymore. Ill take pic's every week, better and even more safe :)

The indoor enclosure, homemade from my bookshelf, plexi glass and one big lower part of vase. I like to keep it simple.....or maybe i just dont have any imagination to do something artistic :p

The outdoor enclouser, i made the brick wall so i have control over where they are, but when the Leo tort will get bigger ill get rid of the wall.

Hi Niko:


Your tortoises are beautiful. I love the little Russian tortoise. The leopard shells are growing very nicely.
