As it turns out when I took him my local specialty reptile store they said the bugs are springtails and are good for them as they eat poop!!! But sadly they confirmed shell rot :( But they gave me a good treatment option (betadine) and no huge vet bill!!!:)

My tort rocky has little white bugs on himself and a few weird spots on his shell he also wheezed once and he doesn't come out much. I will clean his tank to get rug of bugs. How do I post a pic from my computer not a website

So cool I may have seen river turtle on LHC

Sorry I took so long to reply, and yes I do have the link:Landhermitcrabs.com :)

Hi again I got my baby today and he is smaller than I expected. I decided to al him/her cousin it for the time being. Also Im stoked because the original owner had everything right except humidity! I got everything they had for lil it plus the tort for only $190!!!! Any way I redecorated the...

Oh good, sorry my hermit crabs use special water! ;)

Hey this may seem like a wierd question, but do torts have to have distilled or dechlor wated or will they be fine with tap water? Ps we have a community well and that's where the tap is from.

When my baby cherryhead redfoot gets bigger I'll probably put him/her In an old chicken coop we have. I'll probably have to cut a sun roof though.

I love hermit crabs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You should be on Land hermit crabs association forums (LHC)! its a great site. any way 9-10 micros 6-7 smalls 4-5 mediums 2-3 large/jumbos

Hi I guess I just love any animal with a shell, maybe snails will be next! any way, anyone here love their little hermies as much as I do? I am a part of the LHC (land hermit crab association) and forum. its a great site. if your not on it but love hermies you should be!

Yvonne, no wonder I couldn't find a solid answer! The room is pretty warm anyway it 75degrees farenheight right now

It's not a kit really, I'm buying everything from someone who has to re home it. It was only $190 for everything and I will use the tank if not for the tortoise then the hermit crabs. Honestly I don't know the lights but it looks like a good lamp from the pics

Well it comes with mulch,orchard grass/hay, a log hide, uvb and uva lights,fake plants, food, calcium supplement and cuttlebone. But I will probably add live plants ( the actual enclosure is a 60gal tank but I'll move it out side when it gets bigger) and moss maybe?

Hi I'm new Im picking up my baby redfoot cherryhead and enclosure in a couple of days. This is my first tort but I've reasearched them extensively, I even wrote an essay!!! One thing I can't find is do I leave the heat lamp on 24/7 or turn it off at night? This might be an obvious question but I...
