    His old bath verses the new one (please note I use his small bath to change out dried out food or anything he won't eat by end of day. Today he ate hibiscus leaves and flower, pellets and some collard green leaf. I had dandelion in there but he doesn't seem interested I'll have to try other kinds)

    Are "Geen and Orange" plants safe for my Sulcata

    From what I have found, this may a Chlorophytum orchidastrum, a relative of the spider plant. Tortoise Table has no results. Any idea if this is the same plant and if it is safe? Glen

    Made a space between my garden boxes for Herbie to roam when I am outside. Today is hot and I sprayed it all with water and threw Mazuri around. He seems to be very content.

    Sulcata shell issue?

    So I've had my baby for almost three years now and all was well, her shell was perfectly healthy up until she got to big for her terrarium. At that point I got rid of the terrarium and set up a location where her heat lamp and uv lamp were set up for her to use as she pleases but I'd say a...
