    Turtle and tortoise sanctuary in ALABAMA

    Please delete if not allowed! But I live in Birmingham, Alabama, and found an amazing tortoise and turtle sanctuary near the Tuscaloosa area. Every single one of their tortoises was a surrendered pet. It is an extremely loving and dedicated family giving these animals, the best life that they...

    Settling in

    To be completely honest I can not remember the names- I just looked on the tortoise table while at the plant shop to make sure they were safe! One is a type of grass, I believe the other is a succulent, and I can’t remember what the top left plant is!

    Settling in

    It’s a raised bed (with legs) outdoor enclosure until I can get his real outdoor enclosure ant free. This photo was before I changed the substrate

    Settling in

    So I replaced all of Bernie’s substrate and his outdoor enclosure with coco coir I put him in there today and sat on the back porch… I’m not kidding. When I say the entire time all he did was try to escape. I felt like he was in distress trying to get out of the enclosure. He can’t see past it...

    Calcium block

    Bernie has shown no interest in his calcium block since I’ve gotten him! Today and yesterday I noticed he has been munching on it all day! Is this normal? Could this be a sign he’s growing? Or something I should be concerned about? Or am I just being a smother again?🤣 He is a 5 month Burmese...

    Outdoor enclosure

    Oh no ok!!! Thank god he was only in there for a few minutes today. What do you recommend I use as the substrate? The cover over my patio is a mesh cover so sun does come through, but I will move it to more of a sunny area

    Outdoor enclosure

    Until I am able to get the any under control in Bernie’s outdoor enclosure is this ok for spending about 20-30 mins in?? It’s full shade under my deck outside. (He is under the plant to the right so you can see his size in comparison to the setup)

    Play time

    Hey guys!! I always worry about letting my 5 month Burmese star out of his enclosure- I put a towel down on the bed and lay with him but I only do it for a few minutes because I worry about the temps in my house and obviously it’s not 80% humidity. What would you guys say is the longest I can...

    Tortoise and dark colors

    Why is my tortoise attracted to brown things!!! I have noticed he seems completely uninterested in his outdoor enclosure in anything unless it’s brown! He stops for sticks dry leaves, dirt, etc! Not interested in flowers or anything bright! With that being said what can I feed that’s brown...
