Just yesterday I found a one month old baby tortoise Tessie , she is five centimetres in size and is a leopard tortoise I'm very new to this whole tortoise keeping thing so as much help would be much appreciated
welcome to the forum! can you post some pictures of the tort so we can identify if it is a leopard tortoise? where are you located? what type of lights are you using? cage temps are humidity levels? also some enclosure pics. read this entire care sheet! http://www.tortoiseforum.org/threads/how-to-raise-a-healthy-sulcata-or-leopard-version-2-0.78361/ if this tortoise is not native to your area it can be someones lost pet and people can be looking for it.
Hello and welcome.
Start by taking some pics and show us your set up with all the lights. Tell us the temps, humidity level, substraight you use, what you feed and how you heat.
Read that care sheet in its entirety. It's going to seem a bit overwhelming but it is very detailed and will answer most if not all of your questions. Then let us know what questions you have
Be sure to read the leopard tortoise care sheet that's pinned at the top of our Leopard Tortoise section. It will tell you exactly how to care for and what to feed your new baby.
