Hi all,

I live in Bedfordshire, UK. I 'adopted' my tortoise Tyrion from a work colleague on Sunday and since then I have been constantly googling everything about tortoises and texting my colleague constantly to make sure I'm doing all I can for him!
He was sold as a pair last year, with his brother and they thought it was best that they both had a better life being able to have their own space.
From what I've been told, he's a Mediterranean tortoise, 7 years old. Wasn't treated to well from the original owners but will now be given the best life.
Looking forward to reading all about your tortoises!

Hello @Chri5tine and a very warm welcome to the forum, to you as well as your cute tort. GOD bless.

Please give him/her daily soaks in warm water; and do NOT hesitate to ask any question when in doubt, or in need of help.

Any pics of your tort's enclosure?

Thank you

He has a tortoise table that was given to me with him. Do not currently have a pic of it but will get one and post tomorrow.
Thank you. The internet says what you should and shouldn't do but I find it always conflicts the information, so you never really know what to do!! lol
