I soak my tortoises everyday so they do not do their "business" in their enclosure, I clear and wash the dish plates everyday as well, so I do not encounter any bugs/ants or mould issue. I mist the enclosure/forest bedding when they are enjoying their spa, so far for almost 1.5 year, I do not...

Hi Sean, I am using Exo Terra Plantation Soil and Zoo Med Forest Floor Bedding.

Nice and healthy looking Hermann, all my tortoises poop smell bad, I have 6 different species and all of their poop stink. I soak them in warm water every morning for 1 to 2 hours, when they poop in the water the smell will be greatly reduced and when they are used to doing their daily business...

Nice western you have! Anyway be it a western, eastern or dalmatian, I have decided to adopt the tortoise and give it a nice home. Just finish setting up a enclosure for the little guy.

wow! a Dalmatian Hermann, was hoping it was a Western Hermann :( Does a juvenile Western Hermann or a hatchling appear in bright rich yellow? Thanks for the info Tom, appreciate the help.

there is a faint yellowish patch, maybe too small to tell? about 1.5 inch. Thanks anyway

Guys, my friend just pass me a juvenile tortoise. Could anyone advise this is a western or eastern hermann or not a hermann at all. I am from south east asia the weather is hot and humid through out the year, do we need to hibernate the tortoise if it is a hermann? Thanks in advance. ✌

Beautiful radiated! They sure love cactus! I gave cactus or hibiscus to my radiated once a week as treat.

Thank you for the kind info T.G.

Thanks guys, I have already transfer the 2 razorbacks to another temporary 2 feet tank. I am moving house on April, so I will customize a new 6 x 3 feet tank for them. Appreciate all the good advise, thank you all for sharing your experience and knowledge!

Nice set up and nice hamiltonii. How I wish I can get 1 too. Thanks for the tips, might get some of the driftwood, they look awesome!

Thanks guys, gona transfer the 2 razorbacks to a temporary 2 feet tank later. So they will be safe if there aint other species? Razorbacks will not bite same kind? Hope I dont have to get more tanks or troughs. Appreciate all the kind advise.

Thank you Kevin, they have been living together for more than 4 months and they can stack or rest on top of each others when in the water, so I thought there isnt any tank sharing issue. They are all very small, all less than 2 inch. The pet shop owner told me it is safe for me to put them...

Thanks for the advise bro, my plan is to transfer the 2 razorback to another tank. Will it be advisable to keep 2 razorback together in 1 tank and leave the 3 pink bellied in the 4 x 2 feet tank? It will be tough (space constraint) for me to get another 4 tanks to house 1 each of the turtles.

Guys, I need some advise, I have 2 razorback and 3 pink bellied side neck house in a 4 x 2 feet Tank. They have been living together for almost 4 months. Yesterday I notice 1 of the razorback attacking 2 of the pink bellied by biting their feets. Any advise? Or is that normal? Because after...
