Hi everyone, just like many others I am a new Leopard tortoise mom. Sadly I didn't find this site before the FB groups. I've had Megatron for 2 weeks now, and already mad that I bought the wrong UVB light. Fixing that now and praying I didn't cause any permanent damage to Megatron's eyes. I read 3 times now Tom's posts and so Happy I found you all.

I'll start a new thread for my million questions, just wanted to say hi!

Hello and Welcome.
Just so you can relax maybe. The wrong bulb, I'm guessing you bought the Coil type, only would have done damage if you can tell there is a problem with its eyes. If you see no issues, then there was no damage yet.

I don't see anything wrong with her eyes. She's is sleeping a lot so eye are closed that was enough to scare me to death and how I found this forum.
