Will do , thanks

I have a 10 month old sulcata tortoise and I’ve been noticing that it just likes to spend all it’s time under its basking spot and no other place , I have hides provided but doesn’t bother to go in them. He may roam around a bit but I always see him under that light.I was wondering if it is...

I know :( I unfortunately started him/her off in a really dry enclosure , it’s a really happy tort now in its new enclosure :)

I’ll look into it thanks !

As winter is approaching I want to start preparing for the following months. I have two red ear sliders living in a small pond in my backyard and I don’t know if I should leave them in there since I read they go into brumation during this time or should I put them in a tank where I know they...

I believe I’m using the first one , I have been meaning to change to the linear once since his new enclosure is much longer

I mean the tube itself , I use two different bulbs for heat and UVB

He does have a humid hide that has sphagnum moss and coco coir . And I do soak him everyday , sometimes miss a day but I rarely do that. I believe this problem came from his past enclosure that it had , I fell under the assumption that this species needed to be dry so I mainly used that...

Thanks for the feed back! Much appreciated , I’ve been having trouble keeping the humidity at 85 any tips ?

If stopped , will this pyramiding still grow with him or sort of become less noticeable since its shell would be bigger and wider ? How can I stop it from getting any worse ? Here’s a pic of its enclosure

During the morning the humidity is at 80 and as the day goes it drops to 60 or 70 , the temperature stays at 80 degrees to 85 at night I let it drop to 70 with a basking spot about 100 , its diet is mainly the original Mazuri diet, cactus pads, radish and it’s leaves , and I let it roam around...

I’ve been feeling uneasy of my sully’s shell since I’ve noticed his shell is getting a little pyramiding to it. Is this natural for a baby tort ? Can I prevent more pyramiding or is it even pyramiding ?

Unfortunately I had this happened to me as well, they told me to soak it in warm water almost mouth level till it opened its eyes, and since you got it today I wouldn’t expect it to eat or move much since it’s a new environment , hopefully the warm water works and I’m sure other keepers who...
