    They're female right?

    Hercules does have a slight dip and Hazel does not but both have really short tails.

    They're female right?

    Hi Everyone! My two Sullies Hercules and Hazel that I got as hatchlings in August 2011 have gotten BIG and I think they are big enough to determine gender. I just measured them tonight and weighed them a month ago. I'm guessing they're both female but i'm not very good at telling. What do you...

    Pot Belly Pig Expert NEEDED!

    I am certainly not breeding especially since they are brother and sister but the people I got them from had them living together which is why it may be a possibility. I really hope she isn't pregnant since her litter would be inbred and it would be hard on her. I am just worried about how long...

    Pot Belly Pig Expert NEEDED!

    Hi, I just recently rescued two pot belly pigs a brother and sister from a neighbor that was neglecting them. Unfortunately, I have a feeling the female "Penny" is pregnant but I can't say for sure. They are roughly 4 months old, so they're still babies. Anyways, penny has an extremely swollen...

    What breed puppy is this?

    A couple weeks ago I found a puppy by my house with no tags. I put up signs but no one has claimed her so I'm going to keep her. She's still a puppy and only seems to be about 3 months old or so. The first time I weighed her she was 16 pounds and the next week she's 19lbs. So she's growing fast...

    When can tortoises live outside?

    I have two yearling sulcata tortoises, one is about 4-5 inches and the other only 3". Anyways, when will they be able to live outside permanently? They are getting pretty big in their enclosure and I don't have room to make a bigger one. Oh! And I live in Arizona :)

    My Tortoise just rammed into me...

    Thanks everyone! It seems I did the right thing. I smacked him on his shell (just hard to enough to scare him) and told him no! I really hope this doesn't become a habit.

    My Tortoise just rammed into me...

    I've had Hera since last Christmas and have recently found out she is indeed a he. Today when I went to feed him (like always) I was standing over his "plate" as I like to call it with his food but before I could even get the food on his plate he rammed me at full tortoise speed. What does this...

    *New* Indoor Underground housing!

    I haven't cleaned it yet because I just made it but I know that's going to be tricky. I'll probably have to just take the top sheet out to do a full cleaning but when they bring food down there I can just reach it. I taped paper to the sides so I can just lift it up to see them but still find...

    *New* Indoor Underground housing!

    After seeing Tom's post on his underground housing I had to do it too. My sulcata's are getting on the larger side for an aquarium but this provides them a little more roaming space (for now, lol). Top view! They're enjoying their daily "bath", From their point of view "underground". The...

    Is this growth good?

    Well he's in an enclosure outside made of cinder blocks and has about 250sq ft to roam around in. He has access to water and goes in it daily. The temperature is whatever it is outside, lately around a high of 115 and a low of 80. We have a dry heat so really no humidity unless he has any in his...

    Is this growth good?

    Hera (couldn't change his name to Zeus, I kept calling him Hera lol) anyways when I first got him in January he was 10" long and 7lbs. Today I weighed him (August 9) and he weighed 9.4lbs. Is a 2.4lb gain in 7 months good or am I not doing something right?

    Using cornmeal to kill ants, safe for torts?

    Supposably the ants can't digest the cornmeal which for a result they die. I've never tried this before but i'm hoping it works!
