    Nerdle-sick tortoise

    I think they are all different as the PetCo by my house is really good with informed employees. Most of them care for multiple animals and seem to be very knowledgeable in their areas. Good luck with your tortoise...I have nothing to offer as I am learning myself. Wait...I can say that if it...

    Nerdle-sick tortoise

    I believe her nails are a little long but maybe I should just paint them. :P I am joking of course...should I trim them? I am thinking the morning strolls on the cement will help with this. [/URL][/img] [/URL][/img] Enjoying some food...it is true, they do like yellow~! [/URL][/img]...

    Nerdle-sick tortoise

    Thanks for the awesome reply! Much appreciated. I have a feeling her eyes are due to bulb damage...she no longer has any bulbs on her. She is mostly in the outdoor habitat with two ceramic heaters for her needs. Plenty of sunlight in the enclosure, as well as shade. About 50/50 but I have...

    Good for you! Vacations are always nice. I wish I had some advice...but I am still learning myself. Is your tort inside or outside? I have a feeling inside...cute picture!

    Nerdle-sick tortoise

    So, after a little time elapsed from the beak trim...she has been eating really good. She eats geranium, kale (if that is around she eats it gone before anything else, so I can't have it readily available), rose leaves, hibiscus (absolutely loves the yellow flowers), collard greens, and a bunch...

    So livid.

    So? How did it go? Even if it didn't work out the way you wanted...hopefully it was a step in the right direction. You never mentioned a kid before (yes, I know it is not yours biologically). That makes things a little harder to just walk away. There is no reason why you can't still be there...

    So livid.

    Glad you and Lou are back on track. Now onto this girl problem. Are you always there for her when she comes a calling? If so, no wonder she is playing you. If you enjoy the occasional booty call, then this would actually be a good thing. I know plenty of guys that would enjoy a situation like...

    Nerdle-sick tortoise

    I know it isn't perfect...would of liked to get more of the corners near his mouth...but a good start. It is nice to see him not struggle as much to eat. Thoughts?[/URL][/img]

    Nerdle-sick tortoise

    OKie-dokie...so Saturday was a big day. After much waiting and trying to get Nerdle to stick his neck out...and after a few failed atempts of keeping it out with my fingers. Let me just tell you that with the mix of the tort being strong and me not wanting to hurt him...it was and experience to...

    Nerdle-sick tortoise

    Awesome advice and pictures...thanks! Going to do it this weekend. I will post before and after pics. Only going to do a bit at a time because it is way over grown. His eyes are still bulging...I figure that is going to take some time to go down, correct? I found out that he had a very small UV...
