Inexperienced and in need of help!!
Hi there, I'm a 17-year-old living at home with my mum and we have just come into possession of a tortoise. I did not advise getting a tortoise, as we have never had one, but my mother believed it would be fine and said we could rescue her anyway. She will...
Hello,
I’m new here and wanted to see if anyone could confirm if my tortoise is male and what species he is please?
He is 20 years old.
Thank you

Hi everyone :)
I am a pet sitter from Kent and I have been doing pop-ins on this tortoise for a couple of weeks now. The owner told me he is a rescue and they’re not sure what his breed is. I was hoping someone here may have some ideas so that we might better care for him.
He doesn’t really...
I found a tortoise near where we are and I wanted to know what kind of tortoise it is? We found him and wanted to know if this tort is legal or not, we live in Nevada and he reminds me of a sulcata, but also a desert tortoise, but I could be wrong. Any feedback is appreciated!

A few months back I was looking to buy a tortoise, and I knew better than to buy from petco. I went to a reptile store a few hours away and found a tortoise being kept in horrible condition. The store employees didn’t know the age, or sex of the tortoise. They claimed it was a hingeback, but it...
Hallo, I would like to adopt a hingback, but I'm not sure what type it is. The person says it's a tanzanian hingeback, (perhaps zombensis?) It can be skepii or natalensis but I'm not sure?
I heard @tortadise is good, so I'm hoping they could help?
Hi so I understand that a lot of the Speke's Hinge-back Tortoises that have been coming into the use lately are likely to be Bell's. My question is do these look like the same species or distinct species from each other?
In short, I need some help identifying the species of a turtle or tortoise I saw as a kid on some land I inherited in the far northwest corner of Kansas. It had a tall shell and slight fluted humps to clear its legs. The shell was solid dark olive green. It looked like a smaller turtle hiding...
