    First tortoise; I'm worried something is wrong

    I feel like I cannot do anything right with my new tortoise compared to all of the comments. I am not able to make him an outside tortoise because he will get eaten and so currently, I have to do what I can and I went completely wrong according to the forum and the people at the store. So I do...

    I hope your baby is okay. Take them out to walk around. Mine FINALLY used the bathroom. I took him out and let him walk around on a blanket I had and I put food on it and he pooped and peed so much he needed to walk around and get some relief but give it time. He enjoyed himself and was just...

    I do not have anything in my yard and my yard guy has put fertilizer on the yard and all that so it’s been a mess. I hate I can’t take him out only on the concrete which sucks but I didn’t know.

    Okay I have been doing that already but sometimes he eats out my hand and sometimes he just looks at me so I’m sure when he gets hungry he will eat.

    Oh wow! Okay. I have learned so much and I try to just stick with the forum because obviously I did not get everything when I needed to get and I really want to make sure he is good but I keep an eye and check o him.

    I just bathed him in the sink because I don’t have a tub for him yet I plan on getting all of that today when I go out haven’t been out since I got him. So I’ll remember 15-30 minutes. He seemed nervous so I didn’t let him stay in there long but I’ll make it a daily routine so he can get use to...

    Would there even be a way to find out how old he is? I will cover it up today I’ll get some things from the dollar tree to make it. I just bathed him this morning and loved on him. I’ll be glad when he gets really comfortable with me. I tried to get him to eat but I guess he will on his own...
