As most of you know, I have a Russian Tortoise named Pickle. But recently he hasn’t been receiving enough love and time from our family. We all had to come up with the decision that was best for him. We knew that he wasn’t having the best life at our home and that in order for him to have the...

Thanks! This makes sense. Is this only for skin or does it shed on the shell too?

He has a wildly varied diet

So my temperatures all match what you have mentioned. I use moist orchid bark, and by the way, my enclosure is a closed lid enclosure. I usually soak Pickle weekly, so I will start soaking him daily instead. Thanks for you’re help!

I’ve read all the care sheets but I suppose I could soak him more regularly

Nevermind madbad. Can somebody helpful explain what is happening to Pickle?

Sorry?

I know I know. He never walks around. Also, please don’t call him ‘it’

I wasn’t disagreeing with anyone but I was was just seeing if giving a bit more information about my other pets would help out. And, honestly, even if you didn’t mean to sound rude, I found it rude. I really don’t seem to like this forum just because of the (what you guys think are) ‘polite’.

I have a Russian tortoise which is now 8 months. I have had Pickle for about 6 months. He is my first ever tortoise, and honestly, probably my last. I got Pickle from a local pet shop. I unfortunately didn’t get the right advice about my tortoise care and started raising him wrongly until I...

Thanks! I understand what you are all saying but I believe that my little dogs and most loving cat ever will be able to get along great with little Pickle. As I have already introduced my cat and tort and they just minded their own business. I have had many pets including dogs, hamsters...
