    Possible RI? Please help!!

    Shamefully, I admit that this wouldn't be the first time I have gotten a little paranoid with the bugger :oops: After the sneeze incident last night, I haven't seen or heard anything that would indicate a RI so maybe I was overly suspicious. I read a post a few days ago about a member loosing...

    Possible RI? Please help!!

    I think I may have a possible RI on my hands :( I was giving my little sully hatchling has nightly soak and when I picked him up to start drying him off he sneezed, a clear liquid came out of his nose, and then he used his arm to brush at his nose. I know that the sneezing and runny nose can be...

    Sulcata only likes dried out greens?

    I hope this isn't a silly question, but I have a Sulcata hatchling and he seems to like his food (grasses, weeds etc.) the best after it has sat out all day and has gotten dry and crunchy. If, for example, there are a few dry day old leaves that I missed from the day before and a heaping pile of...

    What's wrong with Alfie? Please help me....

    I am so sorry :( I watched your thread on him from the first day, even before I actually became a member on this forum. Try not to be too hard on yourself, clearly you loved him and tried to give him the very best life.

    What's wrong with Alfie? Please help me....

    :( I was really hoping he would pull through. Have you tried poking his leg to see if he responds?

    What's wrong with Alfie? Please help me....

    Is he showing any signs of a reparatory infection? I'm by no means knowledgable enough to give out advice, but I do know that if you're working with high humidity and unstable/low night temperatures, it's a recipe for disaster. And I think JoDee's suggestion is a good idea. I'm sure he is very...

    Tort Names & How Many?

    My family and I are new to the tortoise game so we only have one baby Sulcata that my toddler named Seven :rolleyes: My husband and I found a way to love the name though because we are both huge Seinfeld fans and in the one episode, George tells Susan that he wants to name one of their future...

    Reassure me? Is this normal "adjustment" behavior?

    Hi guys. I just wanted to give a little update on Squirt, now named Seven (my toddler decided that his name should be Seven. What can ya do...) Seven has been increasingly active between his naps, but I still wasn't happy with his eating as he only nibbles here and there. I think he might be too...

    Mercury Vapor Bulb?

    Thanks for the quick response! And we are absolutely certain that the Zoo Med MVB's don't cause any eye issues right?

    Mercury Vapor Bulb?

    Hey guys. I am shopping out for a mercury vapor bulb for my little guy and I was wondering if it matters at all which MVB I get? Does it have to be the Zoo Med Power Sun or can I pick up a bulb from Home Depot and it serve the same purpose? Thanks!

    Not eating. HELP!!

    What kind of tortoise do you have?
  18. Gab5150

    Confirm this is a sulcata please :)

    I also use Eco Earth. It holds humidity well and doesn't mold when exposed to high levels of moisture (unlike the pellets). And your little sully is adorable, by the way! :)

    Squirt, My New Sully Hatchling!

    Squirt doesn't exactly love his morning soaks, but at least he got to use the good Pyrex! :)

    Reassure me? Is this normal "adjustment" behavior?

    I am so relieved that you think so, Tom! Lance did warn me that his appetite may be a little off while he adjusts, but I can't help but worry. :rolleyes: I will continue to monitor him closely though until...well...I'll probably always be like this :p
