xD thats what I'm asking. THough even if it is toxic, I might just get it for myself. I know im definately getting another plant they sell just for me. [hr] According to the Redfoot/Yellowfoot ultimate safe list its safe, but I have a russian, and though I wouldnt try feeding it to him, or...

Orlando, FL

Well I dunno where you get them regularly, but whenever I visit disney/universal(like I am now) I see them around animal kingdom, the lost island in islands of adventure, the animal kingdom lodge and the endangered species store on citywalk. Theyre all sold by this place called elemental...

I was wondering about getting a Money Tree/Plant for my George's enclosure at home, can anyone tell me if they're toxic or poisonous? The one im talking about is Pachira Aquatica

I'm currently with the family at Animal Kingdom Lodge Kidani Village and we saw this tortoise munching on some grass in an enclosure, what kind is it? http://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?pid=4690162&id=519018448&ref=fbx_album http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=4690163&id=519018448&ref=fbx_album

I just sprinkle calcium directly from the container onto George's food. Sometimes if I do a bit too much he gives me a dirty look(or rather, looks up where the calcium descended from the sky from) or doesnt eat it...for a bit. In the end, even if he takes a bite then ignores the food for an hour...

I'm a traditional guy. If a small, bitchy, wild animal came after my animals, I invest in mans best friend. And by mans best friend, I mean the biggest type of dog you can comfortably take care of. Teach it(or get one that has had training) to have little/no interest to eating your other...

I only have my single Russian though. So the fruit is mostly useless to me tortoise wise.

I've only had my George for 5 days or so, but I never catch him having a poo unless he ends up in water or gets startled and agitated. I swear I think he goes only in his hide and buries it, either on purpose or by accident, because ive stuck my hand in there and never ended up covered in...

I was out in the garden today to plant some of the Russian Tortoise Mix & Tortoise Mix Seeds from carolina pet supply that arrived in the mail and snagged a bunch of free Peaches. My neighbors have a chainlink fence between their garden and ours, and in said garden they have about 3 peach...

Even though the sound he made wasnt accompanied by gasping or an open mouth, I think im going to make George a vet appointment, just in case. Better safe than sorry.

<< I found out what the noise was, because this time I noticed it came from the WRONG END to be a squeak, and almost ended up covered in a tortoise dump, and it sounded quite like a wet fart ._. And if thats not the same noise, or it is, or it isnt, or...I lost my train of thought. Either way if...

Well these two questions have been running through my mind and I wanted to finally bother to ask before they drive me insane... 1) Do tortoises make noise? ._. I ask this because I think on one or two occasions George has made a noise at me. This noise was similar to the noise of an...

Yay! Males are also smaller, correct?

Hmm ill have to get rid of the oxalis. Yeah thats probably chives xD My grandfather & one of my nextdoor neighbors did most of the planting, but the past few years its been too tiring for him to take care of any of the plants except the potted ones on the porch. Thanks very much for the help...
