I found a realitivley cheap spider plant sold at Sears. It's young, leaves are only 4". I don't know weather or not to get it because it's labeled "ocean spider plant" is that the same thing as a spider plant? They look the same, I just want to check with you guys before I spend money on it.

I told my dad that building an outdoor enclosure was definitely something i wanted to do as soon as it got warmer. Im going to try and get a Terra cotta water dish thing and maybe a large enough pot for him to hide in, I also thing I'm going to buy a plant or two today and maybe a couple other...

Don't get a bearded dragon, although they are wonderful and sweet, they cost a fortune to feed. Ours eats 150 ($16 worth) crickets every week on top of salad, superworms, and occasionally he get dubias roaches. If money isn't a problem, nor time, a bearded dragon would be great- they are very...

We have warm summers and it's usually in the 80s sometimes even 90s last year we had a couple days in the 100s. In the winter it's absolutely freezing, probably 28 in the mornings and never rises above 42. It also rains a lot. I don't know how many inches a year but it's a lot

Washington state

I'm located up in Washington. It rains a ton here, it's probably not a very good idea to keep him outside year long. How do I put in my age, gender, thingy because I'm only 13

Simeon is 8 years old, he is not the full size of a Russian tortoise. He is only about 6"

Yes, I do still use this table. Right now he does not have an outdoor enclosure, I just go outside and stand near him when he is exploring (I put the dog inside). I can't go any larger for the indoor enclosure. It's 10 square feet. I asked my dad and he said we could build an outdoor enclosure...

Those are pictures of Sammy and his enclosure. My enclosure is a tortoise table. I don't know how to post pictures on tortoise forum but I have pictures of it on my instagram, @simeonandpaisley

I cant go any bigger my room is only 10'×10'... All I can do is allow him more time free ranging in my bedroom. I can give him up to 3 hours a day of time in my room, or outside. I want to, but I truly cannot go bigger, if I could I would have already done it.

Hi! I have had a ton of questions lately Simeon is from Petsmart (sadly) he has a defect in his shell, it's very minor but it's there. His shell also flakes on occasion when it gets very dry. I have very low humidity but I'm going to dampen my Coco coir this weekend when I add another layer. I...

Definitely a Russian

Hello! I use a 100% pure coconut coir bedding. After reading quite a few threads, o realized his bedding isn't deep enough. What can I mix my bedding with? I may end up adding more coconut coir (I have 21 liters that I'm not using) any advice? I don't want to introduce mites or insects into his...

Thanks I've had my Tortoise for 3 years now. He started out terribly, in a 30 gal. Tall aquarium eating a single piece of romaine lettuce a day *cringe. I realized that that was not ok. Now he lives in a large tortoise table and I'm looking to give him a better diet and more places to explore. I...

Hi, I have a 2×4 tortoise table with a 2×1 second story, I am very interested in growing plants in it. I have no idea how to do it and was wondering if you had any recommendations. I use 100% coconut fiber, I'm assuming I need to mix some sort of potting soil in with it. My enclosure is inside...

My tortoise has had very runny eyes lately. I recent!y switched his bedding to pure coconut coir and was wondering if that could be it... Today a lightly used my finger to wipe some goo of his right eye and it was just really goopy bedding... Any suggestions?

I would post a photo but I'm not sure how...

I recently got a 7×3 inch cactus and and was wondering if I could feed it to my tortoise? It is a prickly pear cactus.

Boy I wish I could have this guy! I live way to far away and I don't have the space for him that is definitely what I call a tortoise! I hope he gets an awesome home!!!
