    Redfoot exposing himself.

    Doc gave him a good look, went over my feeding habits and how he is kept. Says it just looks like he is just having a hormone rage. They are going to sedate him and put everything back in.

    Redfoot exposing himself.

    I kept him in a clean plastic tub with a wet towel on the bottom over night. This morning it's gone down in size a lot and just a bit is still hanging out. I'm going to be taking him to the vet today.

    Self grazing or fed, how does your Tortoise eat.

    I for one plant all kinds of grass/weed seeds for my red to graze on when he want to. I try not to put cut food in his enclouser at set times and I never put it in the same place.
