Hey everyone,
So Bob my rt has been doing great... It was sooo funny to see him come out of his hide today and he started stalking my hubby cause he wanted a treat. My husband never feeds him and when he saw me Bob came straight to me!!
Anyways I have his temps right and have lamps on for...
Is the place your talking about in Lansing called Horrocks? I love that place!!! I'm just down the road from you in Flint, Mi. What kind of tort do you have? It's always nice to find people that are near you..on thing that min tort (a Russian) loves from Horrocks is the prickly pear fruit!
So I give Bob my RT a mix of greens daily mixing it up every few weeks. Bob lives tomatoes and I let him nibble a few bite fulls once a week (maybe even less) I tried pumpkin today and he turned away from it... Any other suggestions of different treats to try once a week or every other week...
Thanks for all the info.. I love my tort and if a little nibble didn't hurt I would let him but maybe I will just keep fingers away..!! Lol sooo I saw someone post that their RT eats pumpkin? Can I give my RT pumpkin and is it like all fruits just a little once every few weeks??
Okay so I have a male 10 yr old Russian named Bob whom I love. I hand feed him a lot of times and sit and pet his head or legs or back. Today he eat the piece I gave him and I was just chilling with my hand near him. He tried to take a nibble but I pulled away.
Do they bite hard? If I let him...
I agree that Russians don't really like splashing around.. Mine would always walk through his water dish making it dirty and leaving me to change it all the time. Just the other morning I had filled his water dish with clean cold water.. He was eating and moved over to the water dish. I though...
Hey everyone,
Been a while since Iv chatted!! I was playing with Bob (rt of course) and have him some tomato... He loves it!! Here's a photo of him that I wanted to share!
I agree, I love that he digs just couldn't believe how far down!! Lol i sometimes worry about him getting stuck or compressed.. Under all that top soil and coir stuff... But He does love digging.. Lol
Good points... It's large .. Has some plants but he probly could use some more.. He has a large hide and shade around the sides, it's been in the 90's so he could be a little warm so digging into cool dirt probly helps a lot for him.. I just laugh cause he's always sooo deep it's like digging...
So what's the point of putting Bob outside in his outdoor home to get "real" sun when all he does is dig himself in everyday lol...
(I really do know that sun is good for him and he is getting extra space lol, but it just seems like he suns himself more in his inside home then outside lol)
I...
So bob is in his new out door box (6ft by 3ft) and it is filled with organic top soil, peat moss, and coir stuff... Anyways. This new box is three feet high, and there is like almost 2 1/2 feet of dirt.. Bob has been digging down under the dirt.. Last night he was almost a foot down all covered...
