care sheet ???

[Yvonne G]

If we have anyone here on the Forum who has a good working base for taking care of the star tortoises, would you be interested in writing up a care sheet for us to add to the "important threads" here in the star section?

I don't really know much about raising stars; just got mine a couple of weeks ago. However, I edit copy for a living and would be happy to help fine-tune/edit/add clarity to anything the more experienced people on here come up with. Just pm if anyone thinks I could be of help.

From everyone that I talk to that keeps them, the care is pretty much the same as for leopards. A lot of the same misconceptions from the old way to the new, and what the proper environment should be. I would house and feed them exactly the same as a leopard, but I don't have enough experience with them to back this up.

I would ask Neal, KenS, Skottip, or Tyler about this. All of them have experience with hatchlings and adults, and are helpful guys that like to share info.

I know Ken posted something on 7/16/13 about his enclosure setup. I think it was called "Burmese Star Hatchlings!!"
