my sister bought mine for me from Petco which I hate to think about, but the next ones I get will be from Central Texas Tortoise Rescue. Sent from my XT1635-01 using Tapatalk

I'm so so sorry for your loss.. my Russian once got lost in my 5 acre yard overnight and I was heartbroken. I can't even imagine how it must feel to find her dead[emoji20] and it doesn't sound like it was your fault! you took care of her very well and did the best you could do. it's difficult...

awww your baby is adorable, and I'm glad my tort isn't the only one![emoji23] my tort also thinks for a second before trying to eat my fingers. I guess she's trying to decide whether these big, strange looking leaves are worth eating or not! I agree, Russians certainly are very smart when it...

I'm not sure what the temperature is where you live, but the same thing happened to my tort this winter. even though I kept her inside with a UV/heat lamp, she sensed it was winter. she slept almost all day everyday, and rarely ate. I was really worried about her too and almost took her to the...

Oh my gosh this enclosure is amazing! You've thought of every detail, plus it looks natural and aesthetic. One day I'd love to make something as amazing as this for my tort! Your torts are very lucky to have such a loving parent :-) Sent from my XT1635-01 using Tapatalk

Ahh I never thought of the soap scent! Yeah, my tort is very peaceful too. The only time she tries to bite me is when I'm feeding her, so I guess my fingers look like big juicy succulent leaves, plus they smell like my basil soap! Sent from my XT1635-01 using Tapatalk

This is probably a really weird question, but do your tortoises obsess over trying to eat you? And not just accidentally nipping at your finger when you're hand feeding them. I mean do they ever just ignore the food and go right for your hand? I hand feed my tortoise almost everytime I feed her...

So I've been buying a lot of plants for my outdoor garden this year, and I'd like to know if my tortoise can eat any of these. I've looked a few of them up but I want to run it past you guys since you're a more trustworthy source. Columbine Zinnia Pear tree leaves Strawberry leaves Hypoestes...

Right now she only walks on carpet since tile and wood are obviously too slippery, but now that it's warm outside she lives in her outdoor enclosure (unless it's too cold or there's a storm). Thank you, I will definitely check those out!;

Hi, everyone! So I'm new here, and I wanted to introduce my tortoise to you all. In February last year, one of my sisters knew I really wanted a tortoise but i wasn't able to afford one, so she bought one for me (from Petco, which I've been regretful about ever since she bought my tort). At the...
