I have been well, i post on the tortoise facebook groups, havent been here in a while. Must thank you, i wanted so bad to avoid growing a pyramiding tortoise and knew the odds were not good, seemed so hard to beat but your advice on humidity really paid off and as soon as she was big enough she...
I 7 years ago found this forum and closely followed Toms thread on avoiding pyramiding in Sulcatas. Here are my results. This is Sully now 7+ years old.
Turtlesource is like 7 hours away lol, but I did order from them twice this summer, both times had issues but still they are pretty good.. There are no breeders here in the panhandle, not that I know of, lots down south n central fl... All I have near me is the pet store in Alabama, u can get...
Well I have been running 3 setups, 3 lighting setups and 3 canister filters, all I am adding is an extra canister or 2 and actually have less lighting up, but maybe with the heaters may see and increase in bill, hope not. The humidity is a problem, a dehumidifier ought really help and I will be...
Wasn't much at all really, not compared to what a 210 gallon aquarium would cost.. I paid $70 for each stock tank, 80$ for the boards, 25$ for the blocks, most the driftwood, lights, canister filters etc I already had from previous setups.. Lastly I spent 200$ on ebay for another aquatop 500...
I was gonna go with just one large 300 or so stock tank, but I want to seperate my species and dif sized turtles as much as possible, I got my painted turtles in with a ybs and then my maps in with my concentric dbt, I have a pink belly sideneck in with my maps and terrapin but if and when I can...
I don't have an res, that's a dbt, a Texas map, an ouachita map, pink belly sideneck and southern painted turtle.

We are not allowed to have res in florida.
Figure y'all would like this, my tortoise got stuck in the middle of this build and had to be moved in the process, just got him set back up this morning, here's a pic the whole left side of the room, on the right side of the room I have a hatchling setup with few more turtles in a Rubbermaid...
I got the tubs at tractor supply for $70 a piece then I simply went and got 12 cinder blocks and six 2"x1'x8' boards, the boards cost more than the tanks but all in all it was a very cheap easy setup, just placed the cinder blocks with boards on top and done, I am very happy with the way it's...
Started this thing last week, 2 stock tanks, a Rubbermaid 100 gallon and a tuff stuff 110, sitting atop 5'x8' stand, multiple large canisters, drift wood basking areas etc, turtle moving in tomorrow!
og drift wood etc so not sure on that yet either.
Here we are just...
A Texas map would be nice but not sure if u consider that plain, they r not plain or extremely common as an res or miss map is, very beautiful and stay small, but cheaper would be something like a southern painted or even a razor back musk would be cool, my prettiest turtles IMO are my pink...
Turtlesandtortoises.com is really excellent, didn't see too many muskies or mud last I checked but the selection is huge, theturtlesource is ok, I have had mixed experiences with them recently but they offer a 7 day health guarentee which I now know they do stand behind and that is nice.. Not...
I am also surprised at how he has healed, since I was unable to find a rehabber to take him I was so scared he'd fall ill with infection or he would be unable to heal etc and I've done all I can to prevent it all and get him threw this and so far he doing just wonderful! I have now grown a...
Thanks, and what I didn't mention was the day after I found him I went out to get bandage supplies and came across a fresh road killed large female cooter, I was able to save 10 intact eggs from her, 8 of which were fertile and about half way threw incubation doing awesomely!
On July 13th I was at the lake and found a freshly injuried young male cooter, he appeared to have been hit by a boat and had serious shell fractures, after many failed attempts to get this turtle to a licensed wild life rehabber I began treating the turtle on my own, being a nurse since the age...
