haha good eye,
But yeah I had few of those when I was in china, they are very stable and easy care for cb, specially adult. Not the wild caught ones tho 🤣 they tend to have hard time to eat, but yeah flower back turtle are beautiful creatures.
First of all happy thanks giving everyone! Glad to be in the community.
Ok, so I kinda want to buy a tort during Black Friday period. I encountered 2 deals that I am interested but I can only pick one. They around the same price, one is albino sulcata at little more than 2inches other one is...
star tortoise known is one of those very hard to care for. Also, stress could lead bubble nose too.
one thing is don't jump temp in ur enclosure all over the place, could easily get a cold.
have to guess maybe eat something that is not supposed to be eaten. AKA stuck internal/damaged
usually, sulcata can tank the heat for 5hours, unless is like 130degrees something
for babies need to make sure you have high humid+temp recommend least 75degrees at the cool side 85-95 at the basket area. for humidity recommend is 70%+ close enclosure helps. mist least once a day, soak them once a day prefer. Of couse hide spot/water bowl/ food bowl etc. Usually babies sleep...
Oh that is actually Aldabra, and yes when they got bigger they will move to bigger enclosure outside. I wish it was Galapagos my dream torts haven’t seen any of them in VA
