    Heated nightbox

    Well I wasn't sure. I looked up the guide that was listed under Radiated tortoises and there was no mention of one nor is there mention of one on Will's care sheet. I watched his video and he said that they were very tolerant of temperatures. We don't get snow so I wasn't sure if it would be an...

    Where can I buy

    Another recommendation for @Carol S! She is just lovely and her torts are so healthy. We got Thorin our Russian from her 3 years ago and he's a crack up.

    Looking to adopt

    If you are looking to adopt you should check out the San Diego Turtle an Tortoise Society. I don't know if they have red/yellow foots available but it certainly wouldn't hurt to ask. Here is the adoption link. I rescued a Russian through them and they are very nice and helpful...

    My tort won’t come out of his hide. Is this bad?

    Usually hatchlings sleep a lot. However they do need a specific set up. You wont be able to tell if your lights are too strong by looking at it. You need to get a heat temperature gun reader so that you can measure the heat level throughout the enclosure to ensure that it is the perfect range...

    The Best Way To Raise A Sulcata, Leopard, Or Star Tortoise

    One sulcata is perfect. I know of many people who have to rehouse one sulcata because it keeps fighting with the other.

    Sulcata in Los Angeles Backyard, Opinions Welcome

    I definitely recommend getting a South African leopard from Tom. They are just stunning in color and get to be on the bigger side. I got mine from Tom 2 years ago and I adore it. S/he loves to eat everything. Poe is very personable and you couldnt go with a better breeder. This is her now and...

    Humidity Levels

    I guess it depends on how much money you want to spend and time. You should get a humidity gage. Those are on Amazon. Also you need to find a way to not let the air escape your enclosure. I dont know what your enclosure looks like so its hard to make suggestions. But you need to encase the top...
