    Leafy greens vs pellet food

    Hi all! My Tortasaurus Rex seems to prefer pellet food over fresh greens. He will eat greens when I hand feed him but he seems to only eat his pellet food when left to his own devices. He is around 10, I have had him for 6months, and the previous owner fed him both pellets and greens. Of course...

    Soaking question

    I have been trying to soak my (about 10yr old) Russian who I only got about 2 months ago from his previous owner. I have a little rectangle Tupperware that I soak him in. Thing is he seems to hate it and is always trying to get out. He is kept in an 8x4 indoor inclosure but spends some time...

    Russian enclosure- is it good?

    It's 8x4 but I will also have an outside area in my yard. I will make the sides taller as well. Getting him from a friends dad who can no longer care for him. Substrate is coco core, moss, and cypress mulch.

    Baby Russians

    I am having a ridiculously hard time finding breeders that have baby Russians for sale!! I want to get one in the next few months but I have only been able to find adults and I would like a yearling. The only one I could find was in Canada and it was about 4x the price and not sure if they ship...

    New!! Beginner!

    Probably a hatchling but not super super young if that makes sense. The weather in the summer here is usually 80-90s but we have cold snaps so keeping it outside permanently will not be an option. I will take it out when weather is nice but indoors 75% of the time probably

    More than one?

    I am going to getting my first tortoise hopefully in the next few months once I get proper set up- I'm leaning towards either Russian or Red foot I think. My question is a notice a lot of torts for sale advertised as a pair. Is it better to buy in pairs for companionship? Or could I have a happy...
