Do u know if RT’s travel well? We go to Florida for few months in winter and hav a hard time finding someone to care for them that long AND i miss them would love to take them w me but its a two day drive...??

Ok , i am having trouble posting, navigating on this site...i apologize if im all over the place and not writing where i should be...I’ll get better..hopefully!

My RT’s are outside every other day several hrs in summer, but i need to purchase a uvb light for them. Are there different wattages, or. What is recommended?

Re: torts

Such a cute pic, i had to separate my 2 RT bcuz they started fighting after living together for at least 5 Yrs. one became super bullying...sad. They are both fine now but alot more work with two habitats.

My lil’ guy

I know what you mean, none here either...this is a dog/cat vet n when i called they said they’re able to do the beak trim..hope same by you. I asked at the pet store that sells reptiles..torts, snakes etc and they gave me nane of vet they use but he is really far from my home...maybe you could...

I have seen online where some people show using like a toenail clipper..looked awful..just confirm w ur vet how they do it...i know how you feel, dont want them to hurt!!!!

Just an FYI..i hav one of my RT’s beak trimmed at vet, they use a dremmel tool...doesn’t hurt them and he eats so much better after...my other torts beak is always fine, but the one seems to need a trim every few months
