T Thank you! This one is around 10", in what size would we be able to surely know the gender?

Here is the picture! Would you say that it's a female?

Thank you! Will take a better picture when I get home. Since you have years of experience in keeping them, would you say that Emys do well in pairs?

Hi TFO! Please help me in sexing my Emys. I'm also planning to get another one, these are the pictures : Emys 1 Emys 2 : Thank you!

Thank you for the kind words! I think we could be in the same Facebook/Whatsapp groups, it's the only way to gain information about emys here 😀. I actually have been following your thread! Any updates on your emys? May I ask about your feeding schedule? How often do you give...

He finally pooped! I also made a small temporary pool using terp. Bonus picture of him munching his papaya egg salad mix 😀.

For now I will schedule it based on your suggestions. Thank you so much for the help!

Thank you! How about mushroom & animal protein?

Thank you for the reply! I've tried to offer variety of greens : hibiscus, dandelion, grape, mulberry. But he still would only eat alocasia. I've seen him eaten a few bites of papaya leaves though. For fruits & mushrooms, how often would you offer it? Should I give mushroom everyday & fruits...

Hi TFO! I just got myself a wild caught Manouria Emys Emys native to my country, Indonesia. He is around 10". He currently lives fully outdoor with humid hides. I also provide dry hide to be used during this rainy season. For his diet, so far he likes : alocasia/colocasia, mushrooms, quail eggs...

So glad to hear this, thank you for always being such a help Tom. Much appreciated!

Thank you for the explanation Tom! Would you say that my enclosure is bright anough? The 1st pic shows the LED tube, the 2nd pic is without the tube. It also gets additional lighting from the bulb inside the room where the enclosure is. And one more thing, is it okay if my star doesn't eat in...

Hi everyone, I have a few questions to fellow Burmese Star owners : 1. Does your star like bright lights? I came across a few threads that say their stars like it bright & some that say the opposite. Mine doesn't like it bright, I tried installing a LED tube in his enclosure & he stayed inside...

Thank you so much Todd for the detailed explanation! Yes I'm planning to use a dome, I'm currently using a 75W spot lamp with it. It's around 50cm above the ground and the temp is perfect. Unfortunately the only pet shop that had the Arcadia bulb is out of stock for the time being. I managed...

Hi all, I have a quick question about bulb for basking spot. I really couldn't find any "regular incadescent flood bulb" in my country. What available is only reptile spot bulb. I have made sure that these are incadescent bulbs, buy it doesn't say whether it's spot/flood/PAR/BR. Would any of...

Thank you so much, I will do as advised. Hopefully the tort will be better soon.

Thank you so much for the explanation! Just want to make sure about the dose of the drop, would it be safe if I follow this instruction? "You put 1 drop in each eye, and one drop in each nostril, two times daily for 7-10 days." I also posted the x-ray result & video of my star's clicking sound...

Thank you for writing back. Out of those 3, which one would you recommend? I think there is a slight difference in ingredients. I have bumped up the temp in his enclosure & I'm planning to give him direct sunlight for one hour every morning. I have been prescribed baytril to be given orally, I...

Hi all, I know this is an old thread. My tort is behaving just like the one described in this thread & I'm looking for ways to not give baytril to my tort. I'm having trouble finding the exact eye drops, would any of these work just fine? Thank you for your help.
