    Won't come out except to eat???

    Please don't worry so much about the size of your enclosure. It may be a bit crowded but it looks good in the pics:) If she is eating clovers that's a very good sign:):tort:

    Won't come out except to eat???

    Hi, great question and I totally agree with what you're saying! I purchased my tort from a pet store because I didn't know the difference between wild caught and captive bred. It was certainly a rookie mistake that I will not make again! I understand so much more now and if I desire another...

    Looking for a Loving Home for Russian Tortoise

    Lava Rocks?

    It has certainly helped me out. I need this site to help me care for my tort properly. If you try to look stuff up on your own you get conflicting and confusing info.

    Lava Rocks?

    Oh sorry, I just reread your post. I'm guessing you grow some of your own food and purchase the remainder? I'd probably classify you as an expert tort keeper too lol
