Aww your tort is adorable! My russian tortoise hates it when I spray the enclosure too and just hides in his shell or runs to his half log. xD

Yes I don't take it badly. I am planning soon to place my tortoise into a 55-gallon tub. Asap.

I only have that Russian tortoise so far. I am hoping to post up more as soon as possible thank you! :)

I just wanted to show some photos of when I first got Chester, my Russian Tortoise until now. :) First time seeing Chester and fell in love. :) This is his enclosure so far and hoping to change it as soon as possible. He loves to be outside and is very naughty! >.< I'm...

Alright thanks!!! I'll post a picture as soon as possible!!!

HI, I'm pretty new here, we just got a russian tortoise not too long ago and was thinking bout making an outdoor enclosure. He's about 5-6 inches from head to tail, and were thinking about making a 3'x3' pen for him, is that enough room? And what kind of material i should use as the walls and...

Okay thanks for the great replies I will take notes of how long it takes until the substrate dries and make sure I make it moist enough.

Okay thank you. It's just that this is a very messy task sometimes. :)

I think it might be my basking lamp also which makes the moisture evaporate more, but do you just pour water into the substrate or mix it thoroughly to make it damp.

What type of substrate can provide more moisture? My substrate right now is coco coir and repti bark and I see it just sucks up and dries up all the moisture.

I'm glad to know that and this is very interesting. :) I hopefully will make an outdoor enclosure when it gets warmer out. :)

I'm sorry I don't SHOVE it in his face. I put it in his plane of view and see if he is interested. Of course he's frightened why would I not know that? I be patient and make sure he's comfortable.

I try hand feeding him but he ends up walking the other way or ignoring it. It seems like he likes to look for his own food.

Sorry I didn't see yours yet. But okay I feel better I'm not the only one haha. But thank you for telling me! :)

Sorry it seems stupid to ask but I was just a bit worried.

My Russian tortoise seems to always be bobbing it head. It almost looks like it has hiccups? But when he sleeps he doesn't have that head bobbing hiccup looking problem. I don't think anything is wrong but I was just wondering if this is natural or it's out of the ordinary?

Ok thanks!
