I am the proud mama of two Leopard tortoises. I have had them a week now, and I love them. They are my first tortoises, although I also have a veiled chameleon, panther chameleon, two white's tree frogs, and two sliders in my pond. I am anxious to learn more about these guys and make sure I do everything right.

Hello, Teresa, and a very warm welcome to Tortoise Forum to you and your two leopards.
The one in the picture is adorable, leopards are such beautiful creatures.
I use a flat piece of slate or sandstone for feeding as it helps to keep the beak trimmed.
A cheap, shallow, terracotta saucer is good for a water bowl, big enough for the torts to soak in and sunk into the substrate.
Love to see more photos!

Greetings from Heart of Texas! What a gorgeous baby you have there! Me and my daughter keep 2 babies: Redfoot girl and Brazilian Cherryhead boy, both about 7 months old. I have learned sooooo much from the great people here. Read, post, enjoy this wonderful adventure. Keep posting pictures we all love to see them

Leopards are sure pretty as young ones aren't they? Welcome.
