Thanks!!!
I'm actually asking more for fogger/sprayer and soaking water for shell health. I worry about mineral deposits or calcium build up on the shell. Keeping clean water in the enclosure so far just means me replacing it many times each day - these little bulldozers just don't care...
Sorry, I will have a lot of questions while I'm still building the next enclosure for my red foot. I've had her almost a year now - we guess she is probably a little over 2 years old.
I am curious about using filtered water for the fogger/bath/sprayers. I've learned a lot about my baby...
Thank you. I took it out right away. It was only in there about 20 minutes. I saw her wanting to eat it and it concerned me. I've seen a TON of red foot enclosures online with it - I was surprised to learn it was harmful. Thank you so much!
Thanks. 2-1/2 year old
We are working on the next enclosure which will have a homemade closed chamber. Currently limping by with original glass enclosure she came home in a year ago.
The next enclosure is 6’ x 3’ x 2’. Friend is fashioning a bar w hooks for plastic and to properly hang...
Is spagnum moss safe for my Red Foot? The fogger saturates the substrate on the corner where the tube enters the enclosure. I was hoping spagnum moss in a small bowl could soak it up hold humidity and prevent total saturation in that corner
Any recommendations?
I do not have a sulcata tortoise, so I am no expert, but I can say that this baby should see a veterinarian very soon! Proper heating and proper bedding/substrate are not shown above. A vet. an assess the tort's current condition and give advice for proper care. This little soul looks...
Good job on changing the substrate and for taking this little cutie into your family! They are absolutely fun and adorable little mysteries and often act like toddlers at every age LOL.
I really enjoy feeding my red foot by hand and I sit and talk/sing to her during daily soaks. Be careful...
She came from a pet shop and I think she ate mostly pellets. I appreciate the observation I worry about pyramiding and give a little fruit 2x per week and protein in small amounts every 2 weeks.
Thanks for being here and caring!
Thanks!!
I live in Maryland so having my baby outside in the winter months is a no go.
I appreciate the advice. I want to give her fresh air and sunshine but not freak her out with all of the change. I’ll likely put everything in her outdoor enclosure in the same places as her indoor for some...
I’ve had a red foot since January. She is a little under 2 years old and Im learning something new about her every day.
She was a surprise gift and I knew absolutely nothing about caring for her. Ive used
EcoEarth coconut loose coconut fiber substrate
Mixed with 100% natural cypress mulch...
Hi I’m looking for advice on having BOTH an indoor and outdoor enclosure for my almost 2 year old red foot
We live in the Northeast and it’s summertime. I’d love to take her outside on occasion during the day for sunlight fresh air and ground.
Does anyone here keep an outdoor and indoor...
