Hello! I’m just trying to find out if I can feed my tortoise mulberry leaves! On all the apps it shows the trees with fruit and mine does not have fruit. I’m just trying to see if I can feed my tortoise the leaves even if mine doesn’t have fruit
So under his light it’s at 91 and the rest of his box sits at 85 every other side. I use one of those laser thermometers along with his humidity and temp meter. My house stays at 73 and his house never goes below 75 at night so I figured he was ok with the temps. So I got him on a timer about...
I’m not sure I got him like 4 months ago from petco and he’s not bigger than my hand. He’s a Greek tortoise and I keep his box at 85 so he’s usually pretty happy he just got a little less active these last few days. This is about a month ago I’ll get another when I get home and thank you!
I just needed some help, because Iv only had my tortoise around4 months. Iv read about hibernating because it’s been getting colder where I live and this past week he has been eating less and he’s not as active. Do I need to do anything to help him hibernate?
So I checked it because we changed his enclosure, but it seems good his basking spot is at 101 he has a hide right to the left that stays at 80 and all the way to the right the temp is at 77, and he has a kind of like big log house he digs on the right that stays 77. Iv been using cypress mulch...
Hey everyone herb is doing a lot better since being sick, but he likes to stay in his two houses and come our pretty much right when his lights comes on to eat then go back. He usually only comes out to eat and soak under the lamp alil then go back? Is that normal? He seems happy just likes to...
Hey guys herb is doing a lot better, but I still had some questions. So he has a ton of energy now and like to run and climb the log in his habitat, but he still hasn’t eaten anything to my knowledge. It’s been about 3 weeks since I had him and the vet is no help with getting him to eat. I soak...
Ahh ok I’ll get rid of the lights and switch to those you recommended. I was going to get something for the night but I wasn’t sure on what to get. I figured since I keep my house at 75 and his enclosure hasn’t got lower then 70 at night I was fine for a short while. Yeah I soak them a little...
I didn’t know about that link! Thank you! And the vet didn’t really check anything they just saw his bubble in his nose and said it was severe bubbles and that he had a respiratory infection. I called after I read that post but tommorow is the soonest they were able to get me in and I feel it...
it’s normal for him to run around his enclosure for a while? Or should I not let him? He pretty much moved his log into the middle and just ran around everywhere
Yeah I got him from petco, and made an appointment right away because he wasn’t eating, but he still hasn’t eaten yet, but yesterday he was pretty active and not just sleeping in his corner
Yeah he’s very picky, he still hasn’t tried any foods, but I got a few more to try out and he just ignores it all still. Iv been making sure the water is warm whenever I soak him in the morning to get his appetite, but today is the first day he’s actually not in the corner! He’s literally...
