Hi guys,
So this is my new tortoise, I saw him online, and I felt so bad for him, that I went and got him the next day.
He's 7.5 x 5 inches, and they had him in a tiny enclosure. I'm guessing from all the help on a different thread his about 4 or five years old. He is wonderful, and very inquisitive. They mainly feed him romaine lettuce, there was no UV light, and he is severely pyramided!!!
I'm hoping that there may be a way to repair some of the damage. I'm planing on building him an outdoor enclosure,
so that he gets proper UV, and some nice room to walk around. I will be putting a very humid hide for him, along with another dry one. Plus lots of plants for hiding, and a nice big water dish. I've checked out Terryo's tortoise
enclosure's for inspiration.
Plus could we possibly sex the tortoise?
Thanks in advance everyone
