Yesterday, I noticed an army of ants crawling around the corner of my room near my tortoise's enclosure. (I have a 3" red foot) I moved my tortoise into another area and placed ant poison (the liquid stuff that they take to the colony, which slowly kills them) but there are still so many of...

Hi all! I'm part of a club in my high school called National Art Honor Society. I'm very passionate about art, and it has always been my talent and hobby. I've never run for a position before and I have a few questions. Like I said, I want to run for vice president, but 2 other girls are running...

I fed my 5-6 month old 3" red footed tortoise 1 hibiscus flower today (just the flower, no leaves), and nothing else. She only finished the 4 flower petals, so all that's remaining is 1 petal and the middle part. Do you think this is the normal amount that a baby red footed tortoise should...

I thought making this thread would be interesting since every tortoise has their unique qualities, whether it is their personality or their physical appearance. I think the cutest quality on my baby red footed tortoise, Tangelo, is her reddish nose. It's just so tiny and adorable! She looks...

I've had my red foot tortoise for about a month now and she (or he) is about 3" long shell length. Just wondering what her general age range might be.

Spongebob was right... Best day ever! Tangelo (female I think) came on time today! She is so adorable I will upload pictures and a video shortly. Right now, she is eating chicory and pumpkin from her bowl. She sure has a great appetite, especially since she just came out of her box from...

I'm trying to find a home for a friend's four year old red footed tortoise. She was from a tortoise breeder on turtletary.com. The owner is too busy to care for her, so she needs a loving permanent home. This red footed tortoise has gorgeous coloring and is healthy. She is about 5" long and...

I got these books from the library the other day: Turtles, Tortoises, & Terrapins: Survivors in Armor by Ronald Orenstein http://books.google.com/books/about/Turtles_tortoises_and_terrapins.html?id=hicWAQAAIAAJ I love this book. The photographs taken were so beautiful! Although this...

Hi everyone, I am adopting a RF tortoise soon, so I need 1 heat lamp and 1 UV lamp. I already bought the bulbs. If I can't find some soon, I'll have to buy it from petsmart... Please PM me if you have any of these supplies.

I think the little one (3") has shell rot, but I'm not certain. I dont know if shell rot in RFs are treatable. The bigger one's (5") bio: 2008 hatchling that went to a friend that lives close-by.. and kept in a small enclosure so he didn't "start" growing and now he's very small for his...

I'm adopting a male rf tortoise from a member of this forum but the tortoise still hasn't arrived yet. The person who I am adopting from said he would ship yesterday morning. We have been discussing adoption for about a month now and shipping keeps getting delayed. Also, he doesn't respond to...

I'm helping a friend identify her turtle/tortoise. He looks like a red foot to me. She is guessing that he is a box turtle. We're trying to find out the exact species. Any help is appreciated!

Hey guys! I was looking through the philadelphia craigslist and I found this ad: http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/pet/3216342604.html The pair of greeks + pair of hingebacks combined are only $100. The owner does not want to separate any of them. (This is not my ad)
