    Thanks

    I am not sure the cause. I just started to feed him cucumber and aloe along with his greens. Then I soaked him in a tub for one hour. Just glad that it helped.

    cucumber and aloe

    My red footed tortoise seems constipated. I am reading about feeding him cucumber and aloe. Do I remove the skin from cucumber? Do I feed the aloe plant with skin attached or just squeeze out the aloe from the plant?

    Toot, tortoise's name, is 7 years old. I believe he is at full growth which is very manageable.
