Hello from Thailand!

[relaxkuma123]

Hi there!
I'm Ekkapat from Thailand.
I'm new here and just posted initial thread yesterday.
This "TortoiseForum" is so helpful and useful for me.
In Thailand, tortoises are not so popular as pet then hard for me to get helpful information.

I have 3 Indian star, 1 sulcata, and 1 leopard.
Please give me some advices.
Thank you.

Welcome to the Forum Ekkapat! Your torts are gorgeous and appear in excellent condition. However, the leopards and sulcata are going to outgrow that enclosure in a year or so Please give us some specifics on temperature and humidity...how much (direct) sunlight?

Welcome.

Hello! Welcome ! I love when folks from other countries join. So interesting to see what they find to feed, what they use for substrate and so on. I look forward to even seeing more of your little guys and watching them grow.

Hi Ekkapat:

The only information I can give you without specific questions on your part is:

Set each kind of tortoise up in its own habitat (do not mix species),
If they're indoors, buy a UVB light,
Feed them a varied diet of grasses, weeds and greens,
Soak babies every day for at least 15 minutes and,
Give us more pictures!!!

If you have any questions, just ask them. We'll be happy to help you.

Thank you again everyone,
I'm going to follow all of your suggestions,
And I'll post pics of them again soon!

Hi Ekkapat
Glad to see a new member from Thailand!
I live in Thailand too and I'm just waiting to get my first Tortoise (still looking).
(I meant to look for one at JJ today, but the rain forced me back home )
Your torts are so cute, love the videos. I like your habitat. It looks really nice.
Btw, have you been to JJ lately? I really want to get a Greek Tortoise, but I'm
not sure when they'll have them available.

Welcome to the forum!

I've just changed substrate from corn cob to orchid bark following to everyone's advises.

Hi, Mina
Sorry for replying late.
Except for big Indian star, I 've bought 5 baby torts (3 indian, 1 Leopard, and 1 Sulcata)
from JJ during Songkran holidays and have made habitat for them
following advices from many friends here

But such a pity, a little indian died 2 day after bought.
Then totally remained 4 baby torts and 1 big indian.

I'm not sure how Greek tort looks like..
But I saw 2 little baby torts I've never seen before while walking around JJ.
Could you show me some pics of greek torts?

While you've been to JJ which shops that you always visit?
I bought sulcata and leopard from the shops that 2-3 very big sulcatas are available.
And also I have the shop owner's cellphone number.
If you want, I can give you and maybe you can call him to
ask when the Greek will be available.

Nice to meet you too,
Ekkapat
