And the person who painted his tortoise said he is using non toxic paint.

I didn't want anything bad to be said about these owners. Maybe since I am not that knowledgeable about all species of tortoises I might learn something new about housing two different species of tortoise. Yes I can admit I didn't like the tortoise being treated like a canvas but maybe I can be...

Exactly we have tried to tell these owners not to do this but they are so ignorant.

One of these tortoise owners houses a red foot and a russian. The other owner paints his tortoise. What are your thoughts on these keepers?

Maybe. I'm just going to clean the Tank thoroughly and put some new substrate. I'm going to make sure to spot clean and make sure there is nothing that shouldn't be there. Thanks for the help everyone.

I buy the blocks from petco/petsmart. And it's the only thing I use. I don't add anything else to it. For light I use an MVB and a basking light.

As the title says how often should I change it? I use coco coir. I also noticed that after a week or so it grows these white looking cotton balls or looks kinda like spider webs. Does anyone know why this happens?

Yes. Sounds too good to be true but our store sometimes to move holiday product they will sell it between 10 cents to a dollar.

I know that getting an actual pumpkin is way better than canned but at the store I work in they had these for 10 cents a can. So you can't beat the price. My question is, Can my Sulcata eat this? I read the ingredients and it says it only contains pumpkin. No additives are on here. I wanted to...

Anyone in the southern California area, I live in south gate, that can recommend a good tortoise vet? I've seen the list on the vet list thread but does anyone like a specific one or has had a good experience? I want to take my sulcata to get check up. He recently passed what looks to be a stone...

Hey tom go to page 22 in this forum.

My older tortoise loves soaked mazuri. I have tried to change him diet and won't eat anything else. Even if I mix some mazuri with grasses or other greens he will eat around it and just eat the mazuri.

Excuse my language but why is it when my tortoise sees bird poop they want to eat it? It is so annoying having to chase my tortoise cause the bird poop attracts him. Does anyone have this problem?

I know 2 tortoises shouldn't be kept together. I've kept a close eye on both of them to observe their behavior. At first my older tortoise did not like to share anything with the new tort but as the days went on they have kind of learned to live with each other. They both have their separate...

I don't know if it's true but I talked to some guy at petco one day and he said there are usually deals on the second day. He said usually people go look for what's available on the first day and some vendors usually have sales on the second day.

Hey it was worth asking. Thanks for the info.

I have (1) 100W MVB, and (2) 75W Infared Heat Bulbs. And I have 2 Sulcata tortoises.

I want to add plants to my tortoises enclosure. Does anyone have any suggestions on which plants to add?

Cool it's my first show too. I'm excited. I think some good advice will be leave your wallet at home because you are going to want to take everything home.

Thanks Everyone
