I have a 6 mo old Sonoran Tortoise that I want to travel with over this summer. I am beyond neurotic when it comes to taking care of him or maybe her. Due to BIG altitude and climate changes to travel I have questions.
I live in Prescott, Az. 5,500 feet.
I go to San Diego for the Months of May, June, July due to Multiple Sclerosis. Altitude is what, nothin????? Humidity doesn’t worry me, I can control that and reduce that if need to.
I have taken Sheldon to Phoenix recently for a month and he was fine, great appetite, drinking and soaking. Geary hearty little dude.
I am very concerned about the big change in altitude change going to CA? Has anyone had issues? I see so many posts regarding the shipping of hatchlings of Torts.
Any advice? He would stay in his inclosure. He lives in a 30Gal. tank. Fresh greens every day, he likes me to alternate. He is 3 inches in dia. and length now and he was only 1/2 inch when i got him in Sept.
Thank you in advance for your pointers,
