Hi everyone! I have a nearly four-year-old Russian tortoise, and I recently took him to an exotic animal vet for a check-up and nail trim. The vet said my husbandry is really good and that he’s a happy, healthy tortoise with no pyramiding or other issues — which was great to hear! However, she...

Hi everyone, I have a nearly 3-year-old male Russian tortoise who I soak twice a week (Tuesdays and Saturdays). Over the past three months, I’ve noticed the skin on his neck has been peeling. At first, I thought it was normal shedding due to growth, but it’s been going on for a while now. In...

Hi, I’m preparing for small russian tortoise but I’m not sure which bedding, because there is a lot of options and a lot of websites give wrong information. What beddings do you guys have/ which bedding do you recommend?:)

Rupert apparently likes his cat grass and aloe
