Okay that’s what i assumed but i remember seeing somewhere that it was okay if they way their own poop but that seemed weird to me so i wasn’t sure if that was true i just know he hates when i take him out just to put him back in i swear he would fight me if he could haha

Do you guys change the water they soak in after they poop, mine poops almost immediately when i give him a soak so he’s not in there long enough but i feel bad leaving him in poopy water! and when i change the water and put him back in he seems so stressed

i’m not sure his exact age but what age is considered an adult?

Daily? I’ve heard two is good for adults and daily for babies

how long should you soak a russian tortoise i’m not sure of his exact age he’s only about 4 inches but he hates soaks and i feel so bad watching him try to find a way out but i know he needs them, he gets them twice a week for about 10 minutes bc i feel it stresses him out

Okay that makes me feel better he gets soaks twice a week and has a water bowl he doesn’t really use his hide but he has that too!

he’s a small russian about 4 inches

I am having so much trouble keeping the humidity high in my torts enclosure it’s glass so i thought that would make it easier but i am constantly spraying water in there and i have his water bowl plus another water area on the warm side to help with humidity but it hasn’t done much, any suggestions.

a okay Okay thanks, i don’t have a ton of room to work with but i will probably buy two of them for him

t Thats what i thought, i don’t have too much room to work with i was thinking about giving him a 75 gallon tank but i just feel bad keeping him in glass tanks so i may buy two of those and conjoin them

Hi i have a Russian tortoise and i wanna get him out of his tank soon has anyone used these types of enclosures bruno is in a 40 gallon (which I know now is too small) but these don’t seem much bigger if anyone has a suggestions that be great (he will be kept inside)

Do you have a care sheet that you use that you could link please, i’d really appreciate it :)

Reading it now! Thanks so much for being nice and recognizing im a first time owner just trying there best to give him a happy life (unlike other people on here)

Like i said i’m trying my best and giving him lots of different foods to try in the hopes that he’ll be a little less picky, i cannot force feed him.

i’m going to pick up some more different kinds of greens today so hopefully he’ll eat something else but i’m trying my best i can’t reallr control that he’s picky i just want to make sure he’s fed

same with the pellets he won’t eat them either
