Oh good to know so he may be alright without help. Thanks I'll keep an eye on the little one hopefully everything will go well.

Yeah left front I will have to get creative when it gets older. I'm thinking some type of device with a wheel to strap it on over the shell. Then I'd have to make several versions of it while it grows as it grows out of the old device. I was thinking the crack but maybe not I covered it in new...

I have a baby hatch today it came out of an egg that was cracked when the female layed it. It's right front limb is missing I was wondering if this has happened before to others I'm going to keep it and raise it to the best of my ability.

Thanks i guess ill take a scale next time i purchase a tortoise. I hope this wont ruin his health or stunt him. He has a real good personality and appetite.

I have a sulcata that was hatched in 2008. He is only 23 pounds though i took him to the vet for a fecal check i went to a new vet and he was surprised my old one didnt tell me he was so behind. I purchased him last year in every other way hes healthy. I wonder if hes stunted or if he will...

Well thats not good i just keep looking for disturbed dirt. I hope i find them.

Well thats cool i see you built it out of wood. They dont just bulldoze through it.

Thanks im not sure how big to go. I have 2 acres at the front of my property how big should the area be for his adult size?

I just got this young male sulcata. Hes pretty healthy my enclosure is 10 by 10 for now he is about 11 inches long and they said he was 5 years old. Im building a larger enclosure for when he gets bigger. Ive been told that tin is a good way to go. Do i need to rush and put him in something...

If she digs a nest its easy to tell right i looked and dug a little where she hangs out most of the time. Im new to the breeding game.

This one is picrure perfect. I do feel its fertile cant say what the rest will be like. I just dont want her to get egg bound.

One is new just reached 9 inches so it is her first breeding season i set tge egg up in the incubator. Is there a possibilty of it being fertile?

My female redfoot layed an egg on top of the ground just one. Ive watched her sniff the ground and look for places to lay. She has good ground in her enclosure to lay in. Ive been looking to see if shes buried any other eggs but i cant see any place that shes been digging. Would it be really...

I got my foggedr and the f 10 on Amazon. You can get the zoo med one but I didn't the one I got holds two litres of water instead of one and In my opinion holds up better.

Right now we're still having cold nights this is their overnight box inside not their enclosure just to make that clear.
