Hi All,
I’m taking a Russian in that my can’t take on their move. I’m in Massachusetts. They actually found him running loose 6 years ago so don’t know how old. I have read so much conflicting advice online so just wondering some basic stuff. They have him in a 48”x13” glass tank with garden soil and a dish to soak on one end. There is a fake stone archway in the middle to hide in. They said they feed lettuce, and dandelion and Violet greens when it’s in season to pick outside.
I have a turtle and chickens so I’m familiar with non- mammals, but I feel like I could be making his situation better.
Also are they shy of new people? When I adopted our Map turtle a similar way he took a few months to really adjust.
Thanks for any insight!
