Good evening everyone! This is my first time posting here. I just wanted to ask if our tortoise enclosure is ok for our baby leopard tortoise and what should be the correct humidity? Current humidity is about 60% and the tortoise is almost 1year old. This is left picture 1/3
He is about 7 months old and he started to develop these lines about a month and a half ago. I see online that it’s just growth lines but I feel like they’re so big.
Hi I have 2 leopard tortoises they are both 6-7 years old my female is about 20lbs and my males is about 9lbs. They have been mating like crazy, sometimes I have to separate them. Are they old enough/ big enough to lay fertile eggs? Last year she laid 2 but crushed them both.
And if they are...
Hi I wanted to share my baby’s current enclosure and maybe get some feed back on how I can improve! He currently lives in a 4 foot by 2 foot custom built wooden enclosure the inside is lined with plastic then a garden fabric to keep the moisture in along with a completely covered top! This gives...
How do you go about naming your new hatchling when it may take years before you can figure out the sex? My aunt named her desert tortoise “April” as a baby only to find out later that April was a he…not that it mattered to my aunt really, she kept calling him April. For me, it’s just that much...

Hey all,
Purchased a Leopard from TortoiseTown. I found out the shady rep after the fact. Just came in today.
It's a hatchling but has not eaten. It went into the hide after a 5 minute soak in some warm water and seems to be sleeping. I am not too weirded out by this behaviour as it might just...
Hi I'm pretty new to the form mainly because I got my first tortoise about a week ago and I live in a colder climate with my new baby leopard tortoise Zarha meaning she has to stay inside all the time and she's only 32grams so pretty small I was just wondering what kind of plants I could put in...
I’ve had my hatchling for nine days and he hasn’t eaten. We had thought the UVBUVS light was too strong as he kept his eyes closed. Breeder said to keep his hide area ( half of a closed stérilité container) humidity of 99 and temp of 100. And then basking area of about 110 and then cooler areas...
