    Redfoot sleeping habits

    I've noticed my redfoot likes to every once in a while dig a hole and then poke his nose out and stay there... For days at a time. My question is, should I be concerned about him not eating or drinking in there. How many days should I wait before intervening. In the past I just dig him up and...

    Seasonal lighting

    So I've had this idea/dream for awhile to make my little guys lighting as realistic as possible. (Washington state just doesn't afford the opportunity for much real outside time) Basically having his enclosure light come one when the sun comes up and go off when the sun goes down. This goes...

    Uvb penetrable substances

    I have a redfoot tortoise and I want to make the terrarium she's in more enclosed to boost warmth and humidity, however I don't want to expose my light fixtures to that moisture. Are there any clear materials out there that I could use for the top of my enclosure that would still allow the light...

    Fertilizer, how long to wait?

    How long should I wait after fertilizing my law to put my little Redfoot out for some sun and a graze? Bags usually have information for dogs or children about application wait times but I worry the small size of my tort might warrant a longer wait time.

    Sounds of the jungle

    Interesting idea came to me today. I posted about tortoise food earlier and people said that a good variety of food is good to help stimulate a tort and what not, but would playing the sounds of a Jungle for them during the day also help stimulate their senses as well (I know that the way torts...

    Cherry head swaying...

    I feel like there is something wrong with my tortoise.... When he walks he will walk fine for a little bit and then sways right to left right to left (very noticeable swaying). Kinda makes him look like he's shaking his butt. His walking looks very choppy. Robotic almost. What is going on here...

    Tortoise waterfalls?!

    So I got this zoomed waterfall kit off of amazon and we installed it in my buddies enclosure. (We both have cherry heads). It's the type where you actually need to build in an aquifer into the bottom of the enclosure for it to work. Well we got it running and we put our torts in and his ran for...
