I'm in south Louisiana. Where are you located?

Under any object and bush and along perimeters. The places she tends to love.

Luckily, the low last night was like 49-50. Not ideal, but bearable for her. I've been sharing on FB and my wife has made some of the neighbors aware.

She is about 6" in length and weighs almost 2lbs. She escaped from her pin yesterday afternoon. We live in Thibodaux, LA. We've had her since she was a baby. Thanks for any help!

What part of south LA? We live in Thibodaux and currently own one sulcata.

Been a while since I posted a pic of Rainbow Dash. She is about 18 months old now. She currently weighs 1lb 4.3oz. Here she is just chilling.

Hahaha

Rainbow Dash is officially 1lb now! Figured I'd share it with you all. She is 1 year and 3 months old.

Beautiful tort!

Here is an updated pic of Rainbow Dash (RD) flying solo since her sis died last week of ant bites. RD is about 1 year and 3 months old. Scale is broken so I don't have an updated weight but it is obvious she loves the humidity of south Louisiana. Haha.

Here is Lep. Got him/her back in March. Born in late January/late February. My scale doesn't work anymore so I don't have an updated weight but she's looking healthy in my opinion.

Her sister never got bit. This one seemed lazier than the other. Probably didn't feel like moving no matter what. Haha. The leopard tortoise is fine other than her eye still bothering her. Still haven't told my kids. Dreading it actually.

Well it looks like Applejack died yesterday as a result of the ant bites.

Where do you find this food grade diatomaceous earth? Feed stores? Online? You sprinkle it throughout the enclosure or just around the outside of the enclosure?
