    Why adding hermits with your Redfoot may NOT be a goood idea

    Hi everyone! I am a member of the hermit crab association. I have noticed that this topic seems to go around a bit since hermits love tortoise poop and live in a humid environment. Hermit crab care is actually far more difficult (though not advanced or anything) than many people realize...

    You can't get enough baby sulcatas!

    I was at a reptile expo briefly and I ran into these cuties. It took a lot of strength not to buy all of them and so I am very proud of myself. (Reptile expos for me are like a self discipline thing). Also a picture of a snapper I thought was adorable

    Can't visit my Russian this weekend =(

    Since moving into an apartment with my mom and brother in September, I haven't been able to see my Minster because we don't have enough space for him here. He lives at a house with some of our friends about half an hour away. I haven't been able to see him since we moved at the end of September...

    Help, I must delete my tortiose pictures

    While I love Minster with all my heart and all of his handsome photos, I can't seem to delete them from my posts. I want to submit his photos to Reptiles Magazine, but I can't unless the pictures I submit aren't on the internet. I have removed his pictures from my etsy stores, redbubble...

    Minster wants to mate!

    Minster has NEVER done this before, I have had him for 8 years now and for the FIRST time I saw him trying to mate with his food bowl. I really want to breed him because he is extremely handsome. Ironically my Reptile Magazine that came in the mail, has an entire article on Russian breeding...

    Mold in enclosure?

    Today I lifted up Minster's water bowl and I saw white fuzzy mold! I have seen this in my hermit crab tank but they are also in a moist environment. I scooped out the mold and sprayed the area with marine salt water for fish. Thinking about it, maybe that was a stupid thing to do. I reacted the...

    Doesn't like new home?

    So since finding out my 20 gallon tank with rabbit pallet substrate is bad I have done my best to update (I feel so embarrassed about my lack of knowledge about this. I have had minster for 8 years. At least he had proper heating and lights) Anyway, today I put him in a Rubbermaid 55 gallon...

    Making water safe?

    Recently, with the addition of hermit crabs to my family, I have learned that they need special dechlorinated water. I know that obviously they're not reptiles, but I have seen "reptile safe water" on the market. I don't want to do anything to the water that could hurt my RT. Should I be...

    General Questions?

    Out of curiosity, when you guys breed your torts, do you sell them afterwards? Or is the breeding often a one time thing because you want the offspring? If you do sell, how do you go about doing it? I really want to breed my Russian, but I worry that 1. I will get super attached to the babies...

    Hello!

    My name is Madisen and I have a wonderful Russian T. named Spaseaba (it means thank you in Russian). I call him The Minster. He has been with me for 8 years. I am working on getting him into a better enclosure since I just learned by current one is not suitable. Minster is a male, and he is the...
