    Thanks so much. I couldn’t tell what it was. Ive grown plants like that but I thought they were Philodendron. I may been growing pathos. I'm excited to use this. Thanks for posting your picture.

    Meet our adopted Leopard tortoise

    I found a great picture of a leopard female tail. Douglas is stunted from 2 years of not getting what he needed. I got him October 9 at 447.92 grams and 5” long 1/31/21 he weighed 729 grams and 6” long. But I really wanted to know if he was a real boy. He is because he’s showed me quite often...

    Have plastic Christmas tree totes gone extinct?

    Im using mine for a red foot I bought at a pet store. This tree tote is 52” long but 16” at the bottom which is not enough, I hate the width. I soak in a groomers bathtub or would buy one of those big mixing pans at Home Depot or Lowe’s. They are easy to deal with and plenty big enough for...

    They are like tiles for your house. But are 12x12” and have a slight abrasive surface. Not much. I think the pot bottom has done a little to his front nails already. One looks like brick and I chose the gray.

    I didn’t see any slate stepping stones. I’d rather have them as the would mor natural. I grew up here where slate was our rocks. We love busting it up.

    New Tortoise mom again after many years

    Thanks so much. It isn’t very abrasive and with his terra cotta plate there’s really no room for his plastron. Mostly just his front feet getting into his food and just saw him standing high on his tip toes eating. Don’t think with him standing like that on this tile it will take long to trim...

    Meet our adopted Leopard tortoise

    I’m just getting to see this and I’m thrilled you have gotten things going right. Both your tortoises are beautiful. I really love the light blonde colors on some of these Leopards. I’m blessed with mine. If your hand is not huge your Ga and my Douglas look about the same size with Ga possibly...

    New Tortoise mom again after many years

    Thank you so much Skip. I got 2 tiles last night to do that very thing with a bigger clay pot bottom dish so can use both together. I appreciate the toenail advice. I’m a retired dog groomer of 33 years and know about quicks? I’ve even done guinea pigs and large bunnies and a couple other...

    New Tortoise mom again after many years

    Thank you. I’m really trying to give him the best care I can. He still very much prefers his greens and cactus. Been reading about green beans. Wow how many different sites can “be true” and totally different about the same thing? Wow. He eats his LS and Timothy grass is first In ingredients. I...
