    Hi I didn't no, I bought him from a person in east boldon. But that's so cute that they have the same birthday, maybe they are siblings! I wonder why they give the wrong lights, I'm glad to hear you've made lots of changes though! I made a start today but need rocks! He looks so cute and...

    Thank you!! I got my first tortoise! A Horsfield. He's burrowing and I don't want to disturb, he's named digger and I think he's a boy.

    Thanks so much for the advice! I knew the lamp was wrong, I'm disappointed :-( no slate, no rocks, not enough dirt (I helped him build a little burrow in the corner) he's in a box at least.

    He came with this lamp, no mention of what lamp it is but its 9W, I'm going to the store tomorrow to pick up the supplies I know I need. Should I replace the lamp?

    Hi guys, I just got my fist ever tortoise, he's a young Horsfield he turns 1 on 21st of June. Here's a pic of him burrowing, he's a little shy right now. The problem is I can't think of a name for him! Any ideas?
