Thank you, I'll send him the care sheet later today or tomorrow and just hope he looks at it.

I noticed it a few years back when an older siblings had this teacher but I wasn't even in the building then, and last year I hadn't had the class so I barely new the teacher, I feel bad for waiting this long but now I actually know the teacher and feel less weird just walking in and talking to him.

I haven't gotten anywhere as I got pretty bad allergies and was out the first few days of school and was out of commission for the weekend when I would have been able to get the cuddle fish bone and any other things for him.

Ya I'm basically going to keep going in to talk tortoise talk with him after school often and bring in little presents for the tort while hinting at things in conversation along with more directly say things as I get more confident

I actually joined a while ago but it kept signing me out and I completely forgot my login so I just made a new account. The form is what helped me set my tort up originally too.

There are a few teachers I do trust, but I think if I just pop in now and then I will be able to talk about it more freely to him without it seeming like I'm being rude or pushy, I know I'm not I just don't want it to come across that way. I did tell him about the forum and I may print off the...

Ok that's good then, I will figure out how to give the tort a new enclosure without seeming as if I'm pushing/prying at the teacher as I don't want to get on a bad side at the beginning of the year, ill check how big the table is on Monday though.

About 1 year old I'm guessing it's coming up on a year that I've had her so probably a little more than a year.

The tortoise that needs a new enclosure is a Russian and at what we geuss is 7 years

In that case do you have any recommendations on what I could do for a new enclosure? The most amount of space the we have that we could use is the space on the table so about 2 and a half feet in length. That's a geuss though.

That enclosure actually looks perfect since it has glass on the side so students would still be able to view him as he wanted in the first place. I was actually just looking at things like this on Amazon. I'll talk to the teacher and some other ppl to see if this is doable thank you.

Will do

Yes bc as I mentioned that one is mine, that is the picture of the enclosure I am going to show that teacher to hunt at the enclosure he has is wayyyyyyyyy too small.

I'll take a picture of the tort next time he is out of the hide if I can, as I don't want to make it obvious that I am photographing him, I did show him a picture of my torts set up it wasn't the best picture but my phone was dying so I had to find one fast ill attach a better one that I'll show...

The shell is pretty flat and is domed much, it reminds me of a pancake turtle I will be bring some cuddle fish bones in on Monday and try to figure out what to do about the enclosure situation.

My tort will hopefully be getting a new enclosure soon, if that happens I may donate her old one to him and this tort. But unsure when that would be or if it would even happen. It's about half grown at an age we geuss to be about 7. What size enclosure do you think would be suitable for this animal?

Yes it's biology, though after talking to him I can see that he does love his animals, I don't know if it's visible in the picture but there is a window right next to the tank not on the sun side but is decent ventilation. The animal was given to him several years ago we geuss the age of the...

I spoke to him, he is going to get a cuttlefish fish bone to help wear down the beak until we are able to get it trimmed, he said I could do it but I am not confident enough to do it correctly. I have yet to talk to him about the enclosure situation as in size but he seems very open to new ideas...

I will, I'm going to talk to him after school today and I'll let you all know how that goes. Assuming he is in the room and I don't chicken out of course.

Ya its in class, I don't think he would ignore my email as he is one of those "fun" "cool" teachers but there are always surprises. There are trusted guidance counselors at the school but I wanted to try and resolve the issue before getting them involved. No idea what is done over the summer.
