    Advice please

    Hi everyone, Could you please all offer advice… this evening I found what I thought was our little tort choking on a long piece of green leaf, which seemed to be caught in her mouth and throat. I immediately panicked, and seeing she was trying to hook at it with her arm, I jumped to help and...

    Burying Herself

    Hi all, My little Hermann was moved into her new table today and she seems very happy, however I had a right panic when I couldn't find her anywhere! Long story short, she had fully buried herself under the soil beneath her UVB Combi Bulb and I just wanted to make sure this is normal...

    Aggression/Change in Personality

    Ugh, for some reason I'm getting kicked out every time I try to post... Anyway, I'm heartbroken because my Red-footed best friend Tyrus has gone from being nicknamed "cuddletort" to "the angry baby" It all started a couple months ago when he was still super friendly and cuddly, but started...
