Hello my tortoise Rocky I have had him since a baby , he is now 7 years old and just within the past few weeks has been ramming everything, moving all his shelter around, he is not humping , he rams our shins and cannot even clean out his pen anymore, he usally puts all the weight in back ricks...

Hey gang I have a 4/5 month old baby sulcata and I have pellets, timmy hay and also kale but my tort seems to only be interested in the kale. it wont eat anything else. Is this guide good or are there better guides out there...

I know he is not a wood turtle, box turtle, or gopher tortoise but I can’t determine what he is extremely curious to know! He’s about 9-11 inches long and pretty wide, and I live in North Georgia near the Atlanta metro.

I have a marginted tortoise, he is about 2 years old. I am looking to move apartments. Currently he is in the spare room where I work from home (and play videogames). He sees me and I see him, for about 12 hours a day. What I am wondering is: would he be okay if I kept him alone in an empty room...

Hey. We’ve had this little girl for a couple months now. She came from a home where they did not know how to care for tortoises. I’ve done all my research, feed her adequately, she’s got a heat lamp, goes outside twice a week and gets soaked. Does her shell look okay? It’s not completely round...

So yesterday I was looking into my tortoises enclosure and one of them was awake just gazing at me while the other had been asleep for some time. The tortoise who was asleep for some time startled me as I was watching the other because he started panicky running all over his tank in his sleep...

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.

HI everyone, im new here. I started working at a pet shop, and they brought fifteen baby chacos. I am not sure that the info going around is really accurate. People here keep them in the garden usually and there isnt much info on them as an indoor kept species. Any information or experience...

This is my almost 1 year old Russian. How is the plastron looking? Is it healthy or any shell Roy at all? Just curious

I have an Indian star hatchling now for about a month. She was about a month old when I got her and she’s been super active eating great and everything was fine. Two days ago I noticed she didn’t move all day or open her eyes. I gave her a warm soak and put her back in her enclosure. I noticed...

Hi! I am looking for a couple tortoises for my children to have lifelong companions! I have a son and a daughter that are both very excited to start their reptile journey. I know smaller size doesn’t mean smaller enclosure, but I want to start them out with something manageable. Through my hours...

Hi guys, So I have a baby redfoot tortoise that we've approximated is just around 9 months old. I'm a relatively new tortoise owner, I've only had him for about 7 months now. Recently I noticed a clicking noise when he (idk the gender yet but I say he) would eat, and I realized it was his top...

Heidi: *Sigh* just take the photo hooman..

Somebody gave me 3 tortoises because the previous owner can no longer take care of them. I had no idea what kind of tortoise they are and maybe someone can help me identify them and also maybe help me identify their gender? Thank you. I’m going to post photos of one of my tortoises.

@TheLastGreen @Lyn W @Tom @maggie3fan Hi everyone! I just want to thank you all for your advice and reassurance yesterday. I wish I’d found this forum and your guys care sheets earlier! I hope I haven’t come across as ignorant with all of my questions, I’m still learning and will continue to...

Hey guys I have an 11 year old female redfoot tortoise (Loki) that I unfortunately think I need to find a new home for.. I am getting busier and our recent home situation has made it harder for me to care for her on the terms and to the level that I would like. I’m just wondering if anyone has...
