Cross posted, but I just wanted to get opinions! You can kind of see the smooth feeling divets in his plastron, just wanted to make sure that was normal, if not, how can I fix it? And if the coloring is ok?
THANK YOU!
He's close to 6in long. I keep him very humid, and he loves the water and soaks himself really regularly. We've got snow on the ground now, but I'll be sure to give him some dandelion when they're back. Thank you!
I know this topic has probably been done to death, but any help would be great. Got Frank just over a week and a half ago. I knew nothing about pyramiding until yesterday, then worried because Frank obviously has it. He has white growth lines, but definitely has the signs :/ he's about two...
Hi all!
Just a quick question about Frank (our red foot). Lately he's been soaking a lot more than usual, and I'm worried about potential shell rot (the other day he sat and soaked for a few hours, usually he just kind of plays in it for a little while then hops out) We keep his tank as...

My husband has been wanting an exotic pet for a while. I'm cool with basically all exotics, but he wasn't (snakes creep him out, and so did a lot of the lizards) until he met the tortoises. He was...
We tried this, and worked so much better! Colorado is very, very dry, and spraying him 3-4x a day is only ok on the weekend when we're home. Didn't want him to get too dry during the day! Thank you!
Is wetting his substrate down ok? We mist it and go off of the humidity gauge to see when it needs misted, if we should do something else, please let me know! I've got two heat bulbs on him to make it more even now (we were struggling to keep his temp up--caused him to go off his food for a...
I was totally wrong, for some reason I thought 6-7 months, but apparently I'm way off, they told him he was ~2yrs. We got a ramped, relatively shallow water dish, but if it's the wrong kind, we'll definitely get a different kind! Luckily, we eat a lot of fruits and veggies, so if it's an ok...
