Hello Everyone,
I've been using this forum for information for awhile now, but have never posted. I currently share my house with 1 Ornate box turtle "Betty" and 2 female Russians "Svetla" and "Pogo".
"Betty" was a relinquish/rescue from a vet clinic in Denver where I interned while obtaining my vet tech license 5 years ago. She had Vit A deficiency, severy pyramiding and MBD. I have since moved back to my home state of ND (aka the frozen tundra). About a year ago I got my first female russian tortoise "Svetla" and then 6 months later "Pogo". All 3 live together in a tortoise table in the winter and a kiddie pool that is planted with "weeds" for them outside in the summer.
I just want to say "THANKS!" for everyone's questions and answers on this forum! It is so helpful! I attached a pic of my "clan". I have since gotten rid of the hay in the pic and replaced it with a 50/50 mix of sand/EcoEarth.
