From what I can remember, we found him/her and I only had it for a few months, we didn't know much about it, besides that they hibernate, and it was getting cold, so it was probably gonna go into that cycle soon. I let it in the backyard a bunch, and one time I went back to find it, and it was...

Thanks for the insight, everyone! I have barely any memory of this pet, only that the amount of time and care that I devote to my 2 sulcatas is FAR and away more than what I did with that box turtle. I was just a kid back then. That little box turtle started my obsession though hahaha...

Hey all, I hope this is in the right area. I found an old picture of me and my first pet, Spike. I think he was some sort of American box turtle, but I could be totally wrong. This is the only picture I have of him. I vaguely remember at the time something about a Northeastern or...

Great pictures!

He's got a great looking face. How old is he?

Great info in this thread. Where are you guys getting these cuttle bones?

She's got some awesome spurs on her front legs! My larger baby is looking like he will be the same, but my little one is not nearly as spikey. Great pics

RE: Carolina Pet Supply's TNT with probiotics. Just bought some, and here are my res Oh, I'll have to freeze half of it then, or maybe separate it into thirds, since i'm just feeding two six month olds. Their poops are more solid than ever, and a dark green. And they are HUGE. Hahaha...

Here's my tortoises, for reference. And here is Elbie the day I got her. She could barely stand up and moved at like 1/8th normal speed. (Pepé was scared of her at first) [ing]http://i.imgur.com/sQo5D.jpg[/img]

For those of you who are not familiar with this product, it's essentially a mixture of many important weeds, grasses, flowers, and the like... dried and turned into a powder. You can then sprinkle it on your damps greens that your tortoises already love to eat, and they can get all the nutrients...

Those are awesome pictures, Tom! You should snap more of the goings ons of your little compound. I love it when Aldabraman shows random pics of his giants. Those of you who have multiple torts on here should show em off to us who will never be able to have more than 1 or 2, since were so...

Huh, that's weird. We went right when they were feeding them, and hosing out their room, so they kinda had to come out. It didn't seem like all that much room for 3 big Sullies, but still... I have mixed feelings about zoos, really.

Yeah, that kind of surprised me. I wonder why the gators don't care about them

CHE is Ceramic Heating Element. I have a stick on heating pad under their hide that runs 24 hours, so that their super wet hide will always be warm to avoid respiratory infection, a Mercury Vapor bulb for basking/UV on all day on a timer, and the Ceramic Heating bulb over their hide at night to...

I'd rather spend an afternoon at your compound, Hahaha... It was pretty fun though
