I first use hydrChefs knife and it was the whole tip of my left middle finger and 1/4” from the end. Pressure people Pressure it is your best friend for bleeding wounds. Cleaning every wound is very important since heck what was living on your skin when it happened! ?
I wasn't paying attention to Sam, he came up on my right side, and he bit my hand as I was throwing food on the ground. I honestly think that Sulcata and other tortoises who were fed by hand think that your actual hand is food. I've always said how smart they are, but really? They are pre-historic, and we anthropomorphize them. Especially I do.You don't get bit because I imagine that you treat your chelonia like wild animals, my sister does as well. I only have 3, and unless somebody throws one over the fence, I don't do rescues anymore. So mine are pets and I spend a lot of time with them.Why would you do that??? Just move your hand out of the way...
