    Repticon Charleston

    Ok, thanks! I think it would be safe to say the Charleston show would be identical to Columbia and Greenville.

    Repticon Charleston

    $40? That’s unheard of! Makes me wonder if they’re wild caught.

    Repticon Charleston

    I’m planning on going to repticon in Charleston. Does anyone know what to expect? How tortoise oriented are these events?

    My new enclosure

    I just got my new redfoot and yellowfoot hatchlings and this is the setup I made for them. The substrate is coconut coir topped with fir bark. The plants are squash, pumpkin and pet grass.

    Loose neck skin

    Ok it's not raw underneath. It seems to be drying up and "breaking away" today. I guess I'll monitor it for the next few days. It scared me lol I've never had one have this happen.

    Loose neck skin

    I'm thinking maybe the moisture got too high and he snagged it on some mulch or maybe his plastron

    Shuffles has loose skin hanging from the soft skin on his neck. Should I be worried?

    The dreaded fruit fight!

    I'd believe it. If you google search "baby sulcata" it's almost guaranteed that you'll find pictures of a tiny sulcata reaching out to bite a strawberry that is bigger than he is. That makes for a great photo but it could have a lot to do with people's perception that fruit should be a staple in...

    Recommended UVB bulb for hinge-back?

    The first one is a 10.0 bulb. That's too strong. You will need a 5.0 bulb for hingebacks. Something like these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006L11A6/?tag=exoticpetnetw-20 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000255OS6/?tag=exoticpetnetw-20

    Soaking Homeana

    Ok, I keep him very wet and he has access to his own soaking "pool" which he uses multiple times daily. I kinda feel like the less I bother him the better off he is.

    Soaking Homeana

    I was just curious, what are your thoughts on soaking homeana or other types of hingebacks? I did a quick (not very deep) search on soaking and there seems to be varied opinions.

    Concerns about everything Mr. T is almost 2 yrs old

    Yeesh, does that say $39.99 for the CHE? You can get them on amazon for 10 bucks.

    The dreaded fruit fight!

    I think it has a lot to do with people wanting to give treats to people and animals that they care about. "That poor thing has to eat yucky grass all the time, I bet a strawberry would cheer him up" Every other pet has a treat section at the store so people just see it as a way to treat them...
