Hey all. I recently liberated 2 Russians from a pet store which I named Putter and Driver. I got both because you know, you can't break up the pair. I currently have them in a an old aquarium while I design and build a tortoise table. They are getting ZooMed grassland tortoise food. They also get fruit treats every few days, not too much. I had a Repti Glo 26w 10.0 UVB compact bulb but I took this out and have ordered a tube style UVB light as I understand this safer for their eyes. There is also a ceramic light to provide heat. At night there is a 75w blue heat lamp light. One is very active and one kinda chills in the hide spot. I'm hoping the UVB light will bring him out of his shell, no pun intended. As I design the tortoise table I'd appreciate any input you have. I think I have one male and one female based on their tales. I will post pics soon to help with sexing.
