Hi everyone,

I'm a first time tort owner and I just want to say hi and introduce my new tort. His name is Shelly Dome. He hatched Aug 2017, and I got him in Oct 2017. He was 33 gr when I got him and now he weight 147 gr. He's a cutie and I think I spoiled him a bit too much. I attached some photos, hope everyone enjoy!

Welcome to the forum! He’s a cute little guy!
Could we see a picture of your enclosure?

Please make sure you’re not letting your tort near your pool or your dog :)

Hi!

Yes before I got him, I did my research and read those care sheets from this site! He's only get to roam around the pool patio with our dog Cooper under our close watch!

He has 2 enclosures, 1 in the house and one outside. Please see photos below.

Notes:
  • The outside enclosure has a screen top to protect him from birds during the day.
  • I live in Florida so it's warm & sunny & humid here all year round.
  • The inside enclosure has the shower curtain cover to keep the humidity in when he's inside. I only have CHE heater for him and do not have UV bulb because he's outside during the day.
