Yeah ive soaked him a lot following this. i think he was climbing on a rock and somehow got upside down? But the rock is so low i would be surprised if he managed that. I made the enclosure very safe im really surprised this happened. It happened in the middle of the enclosure so it wasnt the walls

Its never happened before and im not sure how it happened but it wasn’t under any warming lamp

Hi, i found my little one year old tortoise upside down today when i came home, should i take it to the vet?? Im seriously worried but its moving around like normal. I have never found my tortoise upside down before and ive had them for a while but ive only heard bad things about this.

Ill get pics tomorrow when i turn the lights on, yes they have a gradient, they have a basking spot and i dont remember what its called but its a long lamp that covers the entire space. I only have a thermometer in the colder areas, but I can get some for the basking spots too. I just figured...

I read online that 70% humidity is good so ive been keeping it at that. I think thats what you mean by levels, right?

Hi, Ive recently gotten my one year old greek tortoise to love their food, and the food is a very varied diet, they even like the zoomed grassland pellets, but im scared of them eating too much and growing pyramids on their shell. They eat everything i give them no matter how big of a pile it...

I do wet it for a while before, but when i put it on a cucumber slice the little thing went crazy. Thanks

Its not about money, pellets dont pass customs in my experience.

Ive tried ordering parrot pellets online but it wont pass customs, so i just assumed it wont make a difference if its for tortoises.

Cant get it in my country :(

Hi ive been searching a lot after my greek tortoise refuses to eat the zoomed grassland pellets. But i cant find anything that can be found across Europe thats good. I dont have mazuri, i found komodo fruit and flowers? Is that an ok option?

Hi can someone help me identify what type of greek tortoise my tortoise is? I read that there was many species

This is the one, i was recommended this on here, and i have a uvb pole light, its also arcadia and i was recommended it on here. But how long can this baby go without food? Now its been a day and a half here but it hasnt eaten or drank, ill give it a soak now.

It is on the cool side i guess, its the cold side, but under the floodlight it doesn’t seem to be much hotter, should i get a heat mat? Its a arcadia floodlight. How long can they go without food? Ill bathe them for the first time tomorrow

Hi, i just got this baby tortoise today, i put them in the enclosure and they immediately went to hide. Im sure thats normal but i cant see them being active anytime soon. How about eating and uv light? The temperature is 21.5 and moisture is 80%
