Please,Speak out against reptile pet stores that do not give you the correct,or ANY info about how to take care of your reptile or pet.
I bought my tortoises from a store,not a professional breeder or likewise,and they gave incorrect info about how to care for these tortoises.They told us to feed them incorrect diets,gave us harmful lights,gave us incorrect substrate,and didn’t mention that these reptiles (Sulcata tortoises in my case) are NOT meant to be kept in the same environment!Initially I bought three tortoises,and they said they’d be fine to be kept together.My first late tortoise,Michael Angelo,died in May of this year due to the same sickness that just recently took Princess monster truck.We believe she was killed by septicemia,which is most likely the case considering the symptoms and errors in her habitat.My other tortoise,Leo,who is perfectly healthy,showed and continues to show no signs of sickness of any sort,although we need to buy hides for him,which they also did not mention.
Thank you for your time.
