Yes I am going to change out the bars, I was going to use some kind of mesh but plexiglass is perfect I didn’t really think of that! And yes I am aware that this will only last a short amount of time I am planning on moving houses with a larger garden in the next year or so, so when I do move...
Yes I am aware she does include some information that aren’t the best for their health however the enclosure is perfect to use for a year or 2 which will give me enough time to prepare for when she gets bigger. Also the lights I use aren’t the same as hers I have all the correct lights that she...
Thank you and no the new enclosure I will attach a photo of it. I have got everything to make a replica of this enclosure however I am going to extend my one to make it a bit more longer and I’m also going to change the bars to like a mesh kind of material so that it can be humid and stuff for...
She’s a baby leopard tortoise I’d say around 2mm in length at the moment (estimate). She is very tiny, i accidentally broke her current enclosure when cleaning I knocked it by my mistake (of course she wasn’t in the enclosure at the time) so whilst im waiting on her new one the only other option...
Hi, so I’m just wondering if this enclosure would be okay for baby tortoise just for the time being as her current enclosure is under reconstruction. Just wondering if the heat lamp would melt the plastic?
This enclosure is supposed to be for a guinea pig/rabbit which I’d say is far too small...
Thank you I really appreciate your time an effort! 😊
oh he is super cute! And I still can’t get my head round how people can just sell their baby tortoises with false information on how to care for them! I am definitely going to be sharing this forum to every tortoise/soon to be tortoise owner...
Since reading all of these comments I’m now very aware that the people I’ve been talking to and the websites and stuff I’ve been looking at is all totally wrong!! I’m honestly so happy to find this forum as I can now actually give her the actual care and stuff she needs. I’m going to order the...
I have taken the moss out already since reading your last comment, I often let her free roam in a little pen in my room I make sure to hoover the floor before hand i put like a sheet thing down which I’ve seen tortoise owners on tiktok use. my room is always warm as I always have my heaters on...
Hello! I will remove the soily/sand substrate right away and I got the moss stuff from a tortoise shop like 2 days ago shall I take out the moss hide aswell? Or just the moss wall and flooring part. And I love the name Zola! Very cute I’ve had my little one for barely a week and she’s a huge...
Thank you for your response, i will purchase the substrate you have recommended but the forest terrain one I currently have is fir bark so shall I keep that one? Also all of the lights and stuff you’ve mentioned do I have to get 1 of all of them? only because I’m not quite sure how/where to put...
Thank you for your reply! I will definitely have a look at the page you’ve linked! I am also UK based so the places you’ve listed are very helpful thankyou! Also i did ask the person who I got her from about a terracotta pot but they sold me the bowls and everything else as like a huge deal and...
I own a baby leopard tortoise and I have a few questions. I want her to be healthy and happy. I’ve had her since 23rd Feb 2024. She currently only has 2 hides however I’m looking to add some more bendy wood in to make little walls around to encourage her to explore and forage as I’ve read that...
