Cymmie said:Ok, I live in CA so I could easily have him/her outside during most of the year and bring him/her inside when it's night and when it's cold. I just worry because I have a small dog and dogs around me that I don't want him/her to get near. So I would need to make an enclosure I guess to keep him/her in to make sure he/she is safe.
Cymmie said:I finally have my tortoise, for now he's in a 54 gallon rubbermaid container until I build my tortoise table which will probably be within the next month or two. He (just calling him a he outof hope I am told he's still too young to tell being supposedly only a year and a half) is still pretty small I'd say around 4-5 inches long (haven't measured really yet), will be uploading pics tomorrow when I he has settled in more and also will give my list of names.
I just got him today and he's nibbled on a little bit of fuscia leaves, I realized that my lettuce mix had gone bad too late so I fed him some of my fuscia flower and leaves from my backyard.
And yes keeping him away from my dog is top priority even though Dewey would probably be more afraid of him than want to chew on him >.> I still don't want anything to possibly take place.
I still bought a powersun >.> because I'm totally paranoid about when I go away for a few days and he won't be able to get outside when I have someone else watching him. So he'll just get extra sun time XD
I seriously can't wait for a larger enclosure for him, though the rubbermaid he's in right now is easily like 4x the size of his pet store cage.
