5. Yes I do soak him once every two days. (Is that enough?) Although, the plate isn't really deep, so most of the time I have to fight back against his feet. I'm thinking of replacing the plate with a terracotta plant saucer. As for the gender, is the picture of the cracked plastron in the OP...

I don't want to create a new thread so I'm posting this here. I have a couple questions 1. His urine is a really light blue coloring. It is solid/pasty. Is this fine? 2. I got rid of most of the squash, and gave him a lot of grass, hibiscus leaves, rose leaves and grape leaves. He's also eating...

Oh, then I'll definitely keep him. I love the little guy. Also thanks for clearing up the crack problem, that was a little worrying.

What I'm concerned about though is that where we found him, he was on the edge of the street and I assume hurt (looking at the cracks). I'm scared that he might not be able to find food/gets run over by a car. Should I be concerned or will he be all good on his own?

Ah alright, I guess I will. Thanks for the help.

I live in Saranda.

Anyone?
