    Relocation for a Redfoot.

    Thank you, Zeropilot. Not only a lot of thought, but time, money, energy, and so so so much love. :<3: This little girl sure is my princess, and I know someone out there can treat her like a queen.

    Relocation for a Redfoot.

    I am hoping this thread is in the right place. I have a small Redfoot tortoise, I'd say about 5 inches long. She is active, lively, and full of sass. I live in Salt lake city, Utah. Yes, a terrible place for such a tortoise. Since adopting her, I have struggled with the shell fungus demon. I...

    When does it end.. (shell rot)

    The thread, would answer your questions and concerns, Randi. Yes, my tortoise is eating and acting normally. I noticed the signs of fungus early, so she was not acting out of the usual. As for soaking my Tortuga in alcohol, I would never do such a thing. I was talking about soaking my TORTOISE...

    When does it end.. (shell rot)

    I want to thank you Ascott, not only for your advice, but your kindness. Seeing my tort in any danger is really taking a toll on my mental well being too, so thank you for offering constructive criticism without making me feel like a terrible mother. I think your advice is exactly what I...

    When does it end.. (shell rot)

    I have changed my substrate, stopped misting the tank especially where Tortuga sleeps or lounges (just pouring watering in the corners to keep humidity up but the top layer is always completely dry), and have been treating her every day. She is now on peat moss. Today, I noticed that her...

    When does it end.. (shell rot)

    Just to inform and update. :) I ended up cleaning out the tortoise table and playing around with my options. I found a HUGE bag of organic 100% natural peat moss for a killer deal, so I took it as a sign to try it out. I did just a slight layer of cypress mulch (the rest of what I had from...

    When does it end.. (shell rot)

    Not a problem, as long as we are both learning and gaining the information we need to keep our babies happy and healthy. Since fungus is so easily spread, would it be advised to deep clean my tortoise table? Last time this problem happened I did end up cleaning out all of Tortuga's substrate...

    When does it end.. (shell rot)

    Agreed with every word, Turtlepete. Your method for substrate sounds delightful, but unfortunately that option is out of reach for me, at least for right now. I like the idea though. Thanks for the advice and products to try everyone. Much needed and appreciated. I hope your tortoise heals...

    When does it end.. (shell rot)

    Perfect description. I have tried different ratio mixes of cypress and coco coir for a year, but I'm always changing up the tortoise table to see what Tortuga enjoys most and what works best for the environment. When you get a cut, it is a lot easier for bacteria to enter your body and it gets...

    How much do I feed my red foot?

    My red foot gets fed once in the morning and once at lunch time. Usually in the morning she will devour anything in her dish, but at lunch she will either eat all of the food, half, or none at all. I enjoy feeding her this way because it allows her to graze when she feels like she needs an extra...
