Can you grow them in topsoil though? They all say use potting soil :(
I bought some forget-me-nots because they say easy to grow on the package and I've never been very successful with growing plants :P
Coming from someone that has a pet contest on Instagram, I see a lot of pets and their names. A LOT of people name their pets something generic like I get at least one animal a week named Buddy, if not more even my cousins dog is named Buddy! So I prefer something more unique if possible...
RE: Waterbowl has a weird residue?
Thanks they did! They were unfortunately a little to deep for my tortoise who is really tiny but I bought one for when he is bigger. I purchased a plastic one that looked the same and cut it to be more shallow and added a rubber rim which he liked but I cut...
RE: Waterbowl has a weird residue?
Even when I scrub it and wash it with hot water it still becomes slimy. I do have the dish lowered into the substrate now that I have :) the picture is from awhile back. I think I might just buy a new one to be safe. Thanks! Sorry for the two threads, I...
Hey, I noticed that my tortoises water bowl has a really weird brown tinted slimy residue on the water once filled with water. I can dump the water and wipe it out but is this bowl even safe for him? I'm thinking about purchasing something better for him but I don't know if this is common or not.
Waterbowl has a weird residue?
Hey everyone, I have a question about my water dish for my baby tortoise! I have a water dish, I believe it is the Exo Terra Feeding and Water Dish and I noticed after pouring water in it, the bottom has a weird slimy residue. I wipe it with a towel or cloth and...

Thank you! The enclosure I have now is approx 40 gallons (maybe bigger) but I sectioned it off to 20 gallons because the place that I got him from said that he should...
Hello, I recently debated whether to give away my Hermann's toroise named Dash (I felt like I wasn't giving him the great care he deserves). I decided to keep him so now I have a billion questions I want answered.
1. What substrate is best for a Hermann's Tortoise? I have a coconut coir, and...
Do you know or does anyone know of succulents that hermanns tortoises could eat? The seed thing reminded me that the local grocery store started selling succulents and I'm sure I could buy one or multiple and keep it in his home so he always has something to munch on.

I didn't know they...
Do you know what variety of greens I can buy at a local grocery store? Also, I have a question for anyone who knows this answer. My tortoise seems to sleep a lot but if I rearrange his habitat then he starts to climb around everywhere and even climbs in the plants. Is this normal? Everyone says...
I am located in Ontario, Canada. I honestly don't know what to do. The thought of giving him away makes me just start crying. Just hearing people say I should give him away makes me cry. (Yes I am a little over-emotional and I am an extreme animal lover)
