I use cypress mulch (Zoo Med-Forest Floor) and Mosser Lee sphagnum moss. It doesn't stick him and keeps humidity up. It stays moist without feeling soaked. The best stuff IMO

Not saying its not. But there are numerous ad's on different listing websites from 2007-2009.

If I not mistaken that is urine. Here is an article to read http://www.tortoisetrust.org/articles/drink.html

Looks in good in condition and taken care of pretty well. Plus that seller has been trying to get a new home for quite a while. Google African Leopard Tortoise for sale. You see she/he raised the value price from $1200 to $1500. She/He also dropped the asking price from $1000 to $500 not bad at...

I feed Dandelion, Grape, Escarole and Collard. Fruits I feed Cantaloupe, plum, mango and strawberry. Mine shows no preference as long as its fresh.

The bottle is insulated. But I do not warm the bottle up everytime as its on a timer to go off every two hours for 5 mins. It does get warmed up from the heat off of the window. Plus its pretty warm in my house. 76 lol

Spike they have some at HomeDepot and some are even HUGE pots.

Congrats on your new friend. When I first got my Cherryhead he wasn't interested in anything but hiding from me. He now after a month and a half will wait for me to get up to feed him. He sits in his food dish just waiting. More than half the time the greens do not even fully hit the dish before...

Very nice congratulations!!!!

I also work for the Home Depot. In the Garden Dept. at store #416. I was talking with the vendor of colorspot a few days ago and he was unable to tell me any information on the pesticides/insecticides that they use.

well I hope the best for crush. That holiday spot looks awesome sooo many outdoor activities.

I doubt they would know. Plus hes not a "Pet" hes a family member lol..... I do not think that by giving him to a pet shop that it would be "Guaranteed" that there could not be an accident. Also what if the other tortoises are sick. Its like sending your kid to daycare. You don't have any...
