Could you please upload a picture in order to determine what’s best for it? Perhaps it is an indigenous tortoise, but who knows

My guy is a Mazuri lover, he loves it and basically ignores everything else when he sees the Mazuri, so I might need to stop giving him that much. I feed him everyday, with three days per week giving him the Mazuri along with some veggies and some greens. He’s not a huge fan of kale and escarole...

I've heard spider plants are okay for tortoises, but I would be sure. Also, aloes and other succulent plants and cactus should be safe since those are native from the mexican desert. However I would ask for @ZEROPILOT and @Lyn W for their confirmation.

Thanks @Lyn W @Yvonne G and @ZEROPILOT , I’ve followed your instructions and I try to keep his enclosure mostly humid (around 80-90%) and the daily mean temp about 74-80 F, while at night it can go down from 60 to 70 F. This is the enclosure I made for him by now: I’m using coconut fiber, I...

More like the big maing differences when caring. Like, I know this tortoise is omnivorous but I'd like to know how much animal protein I should give him or if it's enough with Mazuri + some other plants It's a red foot, according to its papers, it was raised in a red foot hatchery. He was...

So I went to a reptile shop for the last… 5-6 months? And I developed a relationship with a red foot, every time I came to visit the store he/she would come to me and would start moving around its small enclosure. Today I decided it was time for him to join the family (we’re two cats and a...

Thanks! I already gave him some Kale and turned on the basking bulb and he’s doing fine, eating and walking around.

He is indoors yes and he has his basking lamp and his CHE, so should I just warm his enclosure enough for him to keep him awake?

Hey, So Raphael brumated for around two weeks lol and he woke up today because the weather is abou 80 F. However, tomorrow’s the weather’s gonna drop to between 46 to 54 F and the next weeks gonna be around the same… First of all, should I feed him? He’s just standing there, walking a little...

Coco is gorgeous!!

and these are the consequences of excess buying and pollution. I'm feeling really sad for the animals, not so much for the humans tbh.

He already has a basking lamp, should I place a second one?

A lot of information you just gave, but from what I see and what you explained before the ‘some concerns’ parts, he is in great conditions. The humidity levels around 40-60 per cent are just fine, these are desert tortoises so you shouldn’t expect them to be wet and drinking water all the time...

My desert tortoise is kind of brumating at 72 - 76 F

Sorry, just realized the translation is not to a painted turtle. What the vet said is that this is a pond slider. Here’s a new photo I got from my friend

Very close but according to a tort vet, it’s a him and he’s a painted turtle (from Florida) Yeah that’s what I thought, my friend didn’t take it to a vet, he told me today he went to a random aquarium which name is turtle island lol My friend already posted him on the neighborhood page and...

From what I know it’s a farm kind of zoo, they have a vet (or technician) but doesn’t know much about reptiles Could be better but looked like the people there actually cared about the tort

Hey! It’s me making my 838384 thread But yeah, today a friend of mine found a (turtle?) under his car who was being bothered by some dogs and he took it to his garden. He went to a vet who told him this was a land turtle but I am not quite sure if that’s the case, to me it looks like a water...

Thanks! My friends happy he’s alright, he was a bit worried about the tort Probably, but the people from the zoo rescued him from a bad condition (not sure what it was). He’s looking great isn’t he

So what could they do?
