Thank you :)

Thank you! I know sexing is a long way off but he is actually starting to show signs of being a male! Things can change but thank you! :)

Thank you Tom, I read your new care sheet as well. I have passed on the word many times. I will go get some wheat grass and start growing it, and buy some of that blend too. I have tons of Timothy hay, is it good to put that in the food? Thanks again.

It is pyramidding but the side has a slight bulge thing. I usually go out and pick grasses and weeds but as winter has decided to show up early everything is dormit. I live in Kansas and any nursery around doesn't sell grasses this time of year. So I have had to stick to leafy greens and other...

I will post another post with pictures. It isn't moisture tats the issue. He's a Leopard Tortoise in a hot/humid Chamber.

It won't let me attach. It's a very slight bulge. I guess I will create a new thread later and get pictures on there.

I don't know whether I'm feeding him too much or its just growing from when he came to me. I have no clue if it's a healthy growth or I should cut back. I feed him everyday with either collards, endive, kale, mustard greens and sometimes romaine, also, butternut squash, cacti, mazuri, and the...

Thank you! Yours are the best looking I have ever seen and Lady October steals my heart everytime!

I haven't been on here in awhile! You may or may not remember my Leopard Tortoise, Petre.. This has been doing wonders for him. His pyramidding is almost not existent and is a lot more active and looking healthier! Before and after picture posted. :) if you have a hatchling juvenile Leopard you...

Will do! :)

The strip is strictly for just light. It was to dark in the middle. It will be taken out when I create the hot/humid chamber. Thank you for your help. :) I have a giant spider plant I will be taking a quarter from the host plant and putting it into the enclosure. I have looked on tortoise table...

Okay. I have one but unfortunately it doesn't get hot enough so that's why that bulb is in there. I will buy 2 more in a bigger wattage for night when I redo the enclosure.

He stays in the hide all night and that bulb is on 24/7.

Yes I plan too. just like in the hide. :)

Thank you! I have posted a picture of the enclosure! And that leopard is beautiful. I am definitely getting started on a hot/humid chamber

It may not even be sexually mature yet. But if it is.. possible female.

I have just made plans to water seal and put a bigger sheet of tarp under the entire enclosure to make a hot/humid chamber and take out the carpet. Light on the left is mercury vapor bulb and the strip is a regular aquarium strip light. In the back a hide with 2-3 inches of soil and moss...

Thanks again. :)

Thank you. I am thinking of making a hot and humid chamber. thank you for your suggestion. is it okay that it's more humid even though he is a desert tortoise? I have read that they can get ri from being to humid and such...

I got this leopard tortoise last month and he came with a few issues... pyramidding and over grown beak. I have tried filing beak but he won't let me touch it as he is still shy. I would love some feed back on these 2 issues. His diet as of a month has been very fibrous and green rich, haven't...
