Hello! Just heard about this forum and couldn't be more excited! I recently adopted a leopard spotted tortoise and have many questions and worries. I have read ALOT about them but I swear so many things are different. So I thought I'd start hear and hear other people's advice and opinions! & trust me I have plenty of questions! Lol. Oh! My name is Bre and I live in Jacksonville NC

Welcome to the Forum.

Welcome. Try sinking your food and water bowls into the substrate a little so he doesn't need to climb. That could be a tip over hazard.

Welcome. I'm fairly new to this forum also - though not to tortoises . Thought I knew more than most on proper care and husbandry. But in a few short months my knowledge has more than doubled here!

If you share your questions and environment you will find people willing to share back and keep you from making common errors we've all made.
Good fortune with your little one
Mike
