    Have a plan!

    Hi guys, it seems like it’s been a very long time. I know I dropped off the planet for a while and I kinda just wanted to stop in and tell everybody what the heck happened with me. So I was fairly active about a year ago or so on here and I had some serous health issues happen, I had a heart...

    I need help

    I just wanted to thank everyone for helping my husband, I’m now out of the hospital. They didn’t want me to stay in the hospital due to overcrowding and the risk that I could get Covid. Which would be a serious issue with my current health. I’m still very sick but I should be fine and I...

    The second ...

    Ahhh god, sometimes it’s just bad luck, maybe try a zip tie to “catch” if it falls so that it doesn’t fall all the way into the enclosure. This gives me anxiety.

    Rats

    Field mice build large colonies (the larger colonies can make large holes) and they live underground. You said you live next to a farm that would be perfect territory for field mice… rats, ground squirrels, gophers all also do this. Your tortoise/Turtles wouldn’t be in danger with most mice or...

    Is the Baby tortoise dead???

    No I wouldn’t disturb the burrow in order to check on it. Digging in the burrow could cause it to look for another place to call home and would stress him. I’m surprised there’s no other way. Sorry

    Is the Baby tortoise dead???

    I may be wrong about this but I would check it. Try to not destroy the burrow and gently check to see if it’s ok by picking it up. It’s not like your taking him or anything and there are plenty of people who herp and we touch wild reptiles-amphibians and then put them back. I go out herping all...

    Tortoise Identification and Still in Hibernation

    I’m sorry that this happened to you, someone left you with a animal because you bought the property? And it seems they didn’t even give you any resources to provide proper care. This isn’t fair to you or the animals. Please read the link that was provided above and good luck, I’m sorry and I...

    Ever Heard Of This Seller?

    But!! If it’s opposite then I think they are probably trying to act like the breeder I mentioned above. Which would suck.

    Leopard tortoise hatchlings updates + Pictures

    When I got her she wouldn’t even come out of her shell if I was even close to her enclosure. It was quite difficult to gain her trust. Even now after 8 months she will go in her shell if she sees me but she will come out once she realizes it’s me. And I know for a fact that her previous owners...
