Can anyone advise me about my boy's carapace? My Russian Tort has only been with me for two weeks. His previous environment was appalling and his care was none existent. He lived in a 1'x1' box, no substrate, with maggots under the fake grass lining, which was soaked with watery feces and thick white dried urine. His water source was a plastic lid from a small round microwavable bowl. The family he came from said they hadn't had him long but they knew he was about four years old. His diet consisted of cauliflower leaves and dandelions during the summer. His light/heat source was a 75w spotlight bulb. He struggles to lift his plastron sufficiently when walking and his rear legs bend outwardly,. I'm doing everything I can to rehabilitate him and he's already looking much better than he was. He comes over to me when I call him, his indoor enclosure is 7ftx3ft and 2ft high. He has a sand ,Coco fibre and top soil substrate, which is 7 inches deep in the cooler side and 4 inches in the warmer end. he really enjoys his food and sitting in his water bowl, 10"X10 x1.5" deep.
