The Minor All arrived today.👍🐢 Once opened how long can I use Miner- All and how should I store it? I'm asking because I was told nutrobal can only be used for 3months then I should replace it. I will not be using both🤗

Please can someone from the US post pictures of the front and back of the MIner-All packaging so that I can compare it to the one sold in the UK. My torts live outside during the summer and then have UV lights for Autumn and spring.🐢

How often do you all check on your tortoise in the fridge daily weekly or not at all? How often do I need to open the door to let and in? Thank you :tort:

Hi Please can you post pictures of your thermostat. I'm in the UK I've tried looking into this but unsure how well it would work. My fridge temps jump between 3&7. Would it bold the temperature at 5c?

Hi. Can I replace basking flood bulb for a RHP as a basking spot? I also have T5UV and a LED BAR.☺

All eastern hermanns. We house them separately. Late summer and early spring they spend a lot of time in the spare bedroom. It can get very messy as one of the boys hate being in the house. During that time of year I do find it a lot of work. They are great ? I'm so lucky to have them.

My 1st tortoise was our son's, he left him with us when he went away on holiday 4years later we now have five. ?

Can anyone tell me please if spruce bark is ok as a substrate and can I use a Che for basking? I do use Arcadia Jungle Dawn LED bars for daylight. I can only find Arcadia flood bulbs in the UK at £ 3.99 per bulb. Crazy price for a bulb.

Which trap should I buy?

Thank you all for your help. Today we have had the pest control out for the second time in eight months, he can not see a point of entry. Will take all the advice given to help keep are torts safe. All tortoise are locked away at night, I'm also checking around for any damage to night boxes.

We are having problems with rats in our loft space which is on the same floor as my tortoise room. My question is are the rats coming in after the torts. I'm sure I don't need to tell you how worried we are any advice would be appreciated.

please can anyone tell me if this mix is safe to use in my tortoise enclosure?

Bottom plant looks like image.

Looks like calendula.
