Its a good possibility. She had a tank mate named Sheldon for 5 years who never tried to touch her but all of a sudden got extremely interested in mating and wouldn't leave her alone so I had to remove him about a month ago.

Update on Shelby. Shes doing great. It is day 5 at 6am & She is currently under her basking area digging a nesting hole! with her back legs, its cute to watch. Im Thinking that's a big clue of why it hit her so hard, She's gravid. I'll keep an eye to make sure she's not egg bound. She seems...

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond with all that great info. No it didnt sound rude at all, i appreciate it. Im open to any suggestions to improve. About the sand, it's not alot, it's just where her pebbles & rocks are "her toys" for entertainment. It doesn't go through the whole...

Is that a leopard tort in the upper left, a western hermann tort in the lower right, an eastern hermann tort in the lower left, and a Greek tort in the upper right? They're all gorgeous 😍

Also I do plan on getting some kind of repti vitamins to add to her greens to prevent this in the future. You're right, it doesn't happen overnight but as far as showing signs & symptoms was extremelyfast! As I said in my last comment, I'm open to any suggestions on how to improve their quality...

Hi 👋 No her diet is not the best. Not bc good options arent offered to her but bc shes an extremely picky eater. I can mainly get her to eat red grapes, which i know are a treat food. & a few leafy green options like kale, spinach, dandelion greens, and a few different lettuces like butter...

After I took her out of the bath I wrapped her in my shirt after I dried her off so that what the purple thing is.

I noticed i hadn't seen Shelby, my 6 year old Russian tort in 4-5 days which isn't unusual for her. Occasionally she will burrow an sleep for a few days. But by the 4th I got concerned & went searching for her. She was burrowed, I could not wake her up. I sat her on my chest to slowly warm her...

I forgot to post, the top pic is her. That one is female. The bottom one with the longer tail is him. I forgot to mention that

The top pic I posted is her. The bottom is him.. ya she can be quite a bully, she throws her size and weight around. They're chill together for the most part but I think you're right I think I should just remove him. I don't want to stress either. She's fine it's him that I'd be worried abt. I...

I've seen his "male genital" so whether hes male or not isnt in question for me, i alr know.. I'm trying to figure out why he's not interested in her. It's just her.

The quality isn't great , they weren't happy abt it
