Hello!! My name is Kristin, I just ordered a Russian tortoise through the Internet. Kind of strange! Wondering if anyone here has ordered a tortoise online, and if they had a good experience! Also hoping to get some tips on what to do and what not to do with a Russian. I had a red foot Andee years ago go passed after having him for a year from a vitamin k defieciency. I did not catch it soon enough and hope to be better researched this time around. Any tips are appreciated!!!! Thanks
Looking for tips for keeping my tortoise healthy in a cold area. He will be kept indoors of course during the winter and outside during the daylight hours during summer. What are some good tips to keep him healthy as possible during the winter when he will be stuck inside? His house will be right under a window inside. I got a heat rock, and a UVB lamp. Also got calcium dust with vitamin D3. Anything I am missing?
How much food should he typically be given daily? He should be between 4-5" long.
