Hello everyone, do Hermann tortoises can eat this kind of peanut cactus? I got it as a gift and few of parts have fallen off so I would like to give it to my sweetie. Is it ok? How about pickles 🙈

Hello everyone, I have prepared coco coir substrate for my tortoise and it looks like this shown on my photos. The question is how long should I wait to dry? It is still sticky and when I dig my arm in, it is quite cold. I'm worried that my tortoise will get dirty and stick everything to...

Thank you so much. Then I will go with your recommendation. I couldn’t find is there any quantity of pellets based on tortoise’s weight? And is it ok to feed them with these every day? Also, how to give Sepia bowls to tortoise? I would also go with Agrobs.

Dear Alex, sorry for late, late writing, but I just didn't want to make a new topic and only want ask you here about Agrobs Pre Alpine products - what are the difference between these? I mean which one is the best? My tortoise always wants eat 😆😆

But will it burn him? I’m so scared that it can hurt him. Bulb is so hot. I burned my hand today :-O

Ok, then. Let me just show you how it looks now, with the new UVA light. It is approximately 20 cm form his shell. We managed to achieve 28.5 Celsius degrees. I think that when I get ZooMed UVB lamp it will be warmer. He really loves to spend time under it. But the bulb is so hot. I mean, for...

Hello there 🙂 sorry for late answering, but I have almost get everything I ordered. I just wait for UVB ZooMed light. Today I'm mounting lamp with Arcadia 50W and we will see my baby how will he respond. I think he will up a little. He eats regularly but this additional food will be good for him...

One more question about plants - marigold - they can eat leaves and flowers? And nettle, is it ok for him? Because I know when I get nettle on my skin I get stinging nettle rash 😳

Sorry for being boring, if you just have a recommendation for terrarium thermometer? And what do you think, are these ok: https://shorturl.at/OKxEw https://shorturl.at/jiIa4

Ok, I found Arcadia Floodlight with 50 Watts https://tropical-deutschland.de/Solar-Basking-Floodlight-3200K/RSBF50 And I think that I have made decision. This one for UVA and ZooMed Hood you linked for UVB and it should be ok for my tortoise? I'm just worried all the time is it going to burn...

Ok, so let's get clear - 50Watts won't hurt my tortoise on distance about 20cm? When I have been using that cheap one you can see on my photo, it was so soo hot, never been set on maximum and I've been using it only few times. It is 50Watts, but it's a cheap one. So these more expensive will be...

What is the difference between Arcadia floodlight and spotlight? What about these: https://shorturl.at/mcCOz https://shorturl.at/BS2Mi

And let's keep in mind that if I put more substrate I have only 10cm of terrarium height, plus if I put some of UVB bulb I lose more 9 or 6cm so there's approximately 20cm between light and tortoise. And that's the main reason I thought that 6% UVB is enough and it won't hurt him. Don't know...

I really don't know how to thank you 🤗 ZooMed is about 9cm thick 🙄 and Arcadia about 5-6cm. Here is my shopping list where I would like to combine this Arcadia basking bulb with one of these UVB: https://shorturl.at/JenRY https://shorturl.at/9d82T https://shorturl.at/5uZrD...

Thank you so much for these information. I'm really confused and I would make anything to get a better place to live for my baby 🥰 For now both of lamps are options. I just think that maybe, maybe Arcadia is thinner than ZooMed so maybe it won't hurt him, but still is it too strong? 😨 I don't...
