I have been looking around in bahrain for a while and only found UVB lighting in pet shops but other than that I have yet to find any shops locally. Ordering online is incredibly bad, items are either really bad delivery prices (like 3 times the price) or completely out of stock. Does anyone...

Hello, My 3 year old tortoise isn’t moving the right back leg. I checked it today and it looks fine to me but she still isn’t moving it. Her leg was fine yesterday so i don't know what happened. She isn’t dragging it per se but there is very little movement. I am very worried, and I wanted to...

I just moved my Greek Ibera from a table into a 4 x 2 x 2 vivarium. The issue I am having is the height of the vivarium in comparison to the bulb I am using. The bulb is an Arcadia Euro Range 10-Percent D3+. At the moment, it hangs down at the side, not in the middle as would be preferable...

Hello, I noticed that my tortoise had a white tail tip when I was bathing her. I'm not sure if it's a wound or a fungal infection. She's not acting weird or anything, she seems normal. Please help.

Hello, I'm going to go away for a month this December and I dont know whether or not I should bring my tortoise. Where I'm going is cold and I worry about her neing sick, but I also cant find a pet hotel or a babysitter. Is there anything I can do?

This is my 2 year old tortoise and i have been really confused as to what species, I cant tell if shes a Tunisian, Egyptian, or Hermann's tortoise.

Hey there, I was wondering if anyone knows of a breeder that sells in Canada? I am currently looking for either a Greek, Russian, or Egyptian Tortoise. Also what is the general price that I would be looking at for each? Thanks in advance!

I adopted a fully grown Greek male a couple of months ago. He's never been able to look outside of his current enclosure, but since his previous owners just let him walk around in the house, he knows that there's an outside world. He spends all of his days trying to look our of the enclosure...

I wanna buy a well-started Ibera Greek tortoise but I don't know where to get one. There aren't any local places that I know of so if there are any breeders on here I could talk to or good websites anyone knows it would be appreciated.

Last year I got a baby Greek Tortoise and everything necessary for him however, even after following everything I had read he still died. I still have the enclosure, substrate, etc. so I wanna get another one but I would like to know if there's anything you think I should know beforehand? I'm...

Hi guys! So I am new to this, but recently was introduced to this site, and after looking through many posts I'm hoping I am able to get the help I need before my head explodes from being beyond overwhelmed. So to start off, I got my greek from someone I had gone to middle school with. This...

I couple of months ago I had found a tortoise on the side of the road almost getting run over. The tortoise is not native to Maryland or the east coast so I must have been a released pet. I figured she is either a 1.5 - 2 year old Greek or Sulcata Tortoise. She wasn't taken care of well, her...

I was given all information on Hermanns tortoises along with my little guy. After a couple weeks and reading on only Hermanns I’m just realizing now he is not a Hermanns! Is he marginated or greek?!? And how old would you estimate? (Please note I have child size hands)

Hi! I am new to the forum, my name is Emily, and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on where to get a Greek tortoise? Someone that will ship. Wanted to make sure I support a good breeder and also get a healthy one (juvenile). Thanks! *edited to say I am in the US

Hi dear tort owners! I don’t own a tortoise yet, but I’ll be adopting a Greek Hermann’s in a few weeks/months. Is it okay to take your tortoise for walks? Won’t it be stressed out in a new environment or getting him out of his enclosure? I’d love to take him/her out on walks near the side...

Hello, a tortoise was found in the parking lot of my wife work. Looks like she's had it a bit rough. She has damage to her shell, some missing toenails, but beyond that, she is very active and seems to be in good health. We believe she has been out in the wilds for a while now. Here are my...

I have had a spur-thighed greek tortoise (Noah) since October 2018, and he is lovely! I am considering getting another tortoise, I have read up on and researched the extra space and other considerations needed when introducing two tortoises. My question is, can Noah be joined by a marginated...

Well, technically I’ve been here for awhile, but I never introduced myself or my tortoise, Lumos. I’ve been passionate about animals all my life but box turtles were always my favorite, and after years and years of hunting the woods for them, and years and years of adoring them, I said screw...

Hey y'all. Looking for tortoises to adopt. Must be friendly. I have a huge fenced in back yard and heated homes for the summer months, and I have a tortoise room for the cooler months. These tortoises will be spoiled!!! I'm looking more for leopards or smaller, but looking to adopt many.
