Hello everyone,
I was hoping someone could kindly help me in making ideas to what i can do for my enclosure for my two tortoises. I'm moving house soon and I own two Russian tortoises! I've been finding it very difficult to find a decent sized tortoise table anywhere!
Currently I've got the...
i did use a laser guided thermometer. It probably was the problem! well i hope it was and nothing more serious!
The enclosures are alittle dry i thought that thats what they require, i spray them down every so often and bath them reguarly! I've gone one in a viv "the one i wondered why it...
No i don't put them together i split them up early on soon as i found out!
I've got two russian tortoises and the one in question is also a russian!
they're both similar sizes but the one in the bath is the one in question :) Thanks for your time i really appriciate it!
Odly enough after a...
Hello everyone!
I've got a question for you all
My tortoise hasn't been properly eating for a good few days but my other tortoise is eating and running around fine.
he doesn't seem to eat unless i put it on the tip of it's nose. I try piling leafs up for it but after it's eaten the one or two...
Hello again!
Firstly thank you all for getting back to me!
I've got a picture of the size of my tort the other isn't much different they are very similar in size. I wont be living at my current location for more than 5 years i'll be in another home so the tort's enclosure will only need to fit...
Hello everyone!
Sorry, i've been away for awhile! :/
I'm looking for some help! I've got two russian tortoises, long story but i got them from a petshop awhile back not knowing they couldn't live together ect.. lesson learned!
They are split up for now but ones in a table and the other in a...
yeah he was moved out but the other tortoise, the bigger one was also moved to a slightly bigger enclosure, so thats why it's happening? I'm guessing after awhile he'll stop? :O
Hello everyone,
i've found this forum very useful and i've also tried helping others through what i've learned but i've come back with another issue,
I took your advice and seperated my tortoises (russians) my smallest russian thats in it's table has a window on it, i know they don't...
I look after two russian tortoises, with a full time job and strict gym routine of 3 days aweek, amature bodybuilding.
I make sure they have clean fresh water when ever i'm home, i turn their lights on before i go to work at 8am and turn them off around 8pm varies depending on how long ago i...
A few days without UV i'm lead to believe will be fine, it wont cause the tortoise any harm, it's not recommended for obviouse reasons but it wont harm the tortoise, just try get it as much UV as possible from natural sunlight, but don't worry if you can't.
I'm presuming it's in a tempary...
Hello and welcome!
I'm also from the UK!! $$ :D
I'm fairly new to my two Russian tortoises, had them for about 2 months now it's beena learning curve but it's been fun!
I've started to grow food for them in my own green house, i believe russians and harmans have a similar diet!
I'm...
Awesome thank you! I'm still deciding how i plan on building my enclosure, i've got a fair amount of costs to pay out for currently, i'm trying to save for my first car, get my driving tests done, redo my back yard and build this enclosure, so it's all going to happen slowly but surely! i've got...
Hello, My advice will be to make sure your giving them the correct diet and to make sure they can live together but also make preperations for the future, i'm not sure how big they will grow but i've seen some pretty big tortoise species, i know nothing of this particular species though :/
But...
I'm slowly but surely creating a better enviroment for my two russian tortoises! They're brilliant pets!
I'm planning on building an enclosure outside for them both, seperated obc! Since the wheather is becoming nicer,
but i've no idea where to start, i've looked online theres some rabit...
Thanks! i'll definately check these links out!
i've decided to get a greenhouse and grow some foods too, i want a varied diet for my torts and i enjoy gardening so it's not all that bad
I wanted 1 hermann tortoise, did all my research into it, my breader said he had none left on the last minute of delivery, so he offered me 2 russian torts for the same price, i did half a hour research and said yeah sure, i didn't realise they should never be kept together.. So they've been...
