Hello Shelly and welcome to the forum...

Hi Shelly:

According to forum etiquette, its polite to start a new thread when you're not talking about the subject in the thread you're reading. So that's why I've moved your introduction to its own spot. Also, that way more people will realize that its a new person asking a new question and you'll probably receive more replies.

So, Welcome to the forum!! Glad to have you here.

Welcome to the Forum and we LOVE PICS

Well, if your tort poo'd that much, that is a good thing that he cleared out the pipes ....

Hibiscus flowers are good...very good

I can not advise on the pic post, other than some folks use photobucket. and tinypic. so perhaps give these a try?

Welcome! I don't know if there is such a thing as "normal". But I can tell you, we have two RTs and they pretty much always poop when we soak. In fact, I get worried if they don't.

You can resize your pic before uploading it. Resizing can be done in any number of programs, including MS Office Picture Manager, Photoshop, etc. Just open the pic, resize using the edit tools and Save As (be sure to Save As so you don't overwrite your original high-pixel version). Then you can upload the edited smaller version here.

The alternative is to store your pics on an Internet accessible website such as Photobucket or Picasa and post links to those photos. There is information in the Help and Feeback section here:

Welcome!

Here is a thread with step by step instructions on uploading a photo, using photobucket, but tinypics works too

welcome!! We poop our torts everyday and we're constantly amazed at how much poop they have!! (they're about 2 1/2 inches big.. but they poop about an inch long!) Have no idea where it all comes from!
My guess is there's no problem with the extra pooping.. just be concerned when they don't poop!
