Hello everyone.
My name is Kristaps Fisher and our newest family member - Athena. I got her from local pet shop around 2 month ago and at the time didnt realize where im getting into. In shop she lived in a dry sand with mostly carrots in her dish. So i took the advice and bought a bag of desert sand. I spent the next month educating myself about tortoise keeping and as many others may journey ended here. So shes living in proper conditions for about a month now.
Unfortunately i didnt take any pics when i bought her. She was pyramiding when i bought her and was dry as a rozine. Scales seemed to grow one under the other, now theyre seem to be evening out. Would like to hear some opinion on new growth. Also attaching weight chart for past month. Link to enclosure https://www.tortoiseforum.org/threads/new-home.175614/
Feeding her stuff thats marked as good in tortoisetable

Welcome to the forum. Looks like you have a female russian tortoise. She looks good to me. Maybe slight pyramiding but not bad. Russian torts have some natural bumbyness to their shell anyway. Good job taking care of her.

Hi. seems to me you saved the life of little Athena. Well done. :<3:
She is cute but much to young to know if the name you given her is right.:)
