I have been a member of this forum for over five years. A few months ago, I stopped getting emails - don't know why. I wrote back then asking for help, but I'm asking again. I had to register again which is why it says I joined today. I would guess that my account was deleted, but I didn't...
Can someone help me? I have been a member going on five years, and I noticed that a few weeks ago, I am no longer receiving posts via email. I've checked my settings, and it still says I should be receiving posts. I really miss not getting the posts. Thanks, K
4 year old healthy, friendly female REDFOOTS in South Carolina. I will let everything go with them - indoor pens, outdoor pens, heating, lights, etc. I have CKD Stage 3, and I am finding myself not as capable as I used to be. I just want the girls into a good home. Thanks, k
I went out to feed what I have thought were my two female redfoots. I heard what sounded like a frog in the pen, but when I lifted the hide cover, I see the big one humping the smaller one, making groaning noises. I turned "her" over to snap a pic, but what I got isn't much. It looked like a...
He (?) is just a little over two years old, loves to eat, loves to spend time outside in the pen, loves to bask, but mostly, he loves to eat. LOL He's so used to being handled, soaked every night, outside every day in good weather and loves to have his neck and legs rubbed. This one's name is...
Can anyone tell me how long the inside pen should be misted/fogged? My boys (?) are about two years old now and spend nights inside in their pen and warm/humid days in their outside enclosure. I have been using a fogger since I got them and just threw out the third which was a piece of junk...
I always am concerned about heat for my boys (I'm saying boys because I really do think they are) so I have them in four-foot in diameter pool with coconut coir as substrate. (If I use the orchard bark, which I have, the one tort will eat it. I've seen some in his poop!). I have a ceramic...
I have 2 redfoots, and they are currently in a large tank with heat and UVB lights and a fogger. I think they are getting too big for that tank which looked huge when I got them over a year ago. I just ordered a pool - 48" in diameter - for them. I'll be putting that in the sun room. I have...
My Redfoots are getting big - too big, I think, for their aquarium. I have a caged pen for them to be outside for a few hours a day when the weather cooperates, but I would like to have something larger for them indoors or on not-great-weather days where they can move around freer. I was...
I have been searching for some kind of enclosure I could use to give the torts some outside time (supervised, of course), and then I remembered I had this old dog cage in the shed. I took it out, removed the tray and turned it upside down, and it's perfect for now. They can graze, the openings...
I have two red-foot tortoises. I got them as hatchlings from a reputable breeder who has been very helpful with this very novice tort owner. I have a question about substrate. Currently, they are in a 40-gallon breeder tank, and there is coconut fiber as substrate from ZooMed - recommended by...
