The venting that is built in to AP cages should be adequate. That is all I use for all of mine. You don't have to get white. Black is okay too. I like to have them install a light socket on each side. I usually use one for a basking bulb and the other for a LED.

Thank you so much! I'm okay to home him for now in the short term, reaching out early before absolutely necessary. I most need to find a suitable caring owner with an outdoor space who can give him the care he needs, do you know anyone you could possibly connect me to who is searching? If not, no worries 💛

I’m so glad I found this site! My 12 year old Sulcatta tortoise no longer can live in my moms gated community. The association said we were allowed. ( long story )I need a foster family for a little while until then. I certainly would love to keep him and have him close enough to go visit and feed him and have access. If there is any interest with someone in South Florida reading this - that would be so amazing!
Hello, would anyone in this forum know where I could donate a collage painting of a tortoise in the Sonoran Desert?
Thank you for any help you can give me.
I’d like to post the picture here, but can’t figure out how to do it.
they are closed so I haven’t been able to ask many questions yet. I dont know how old he is and i dont know how he was started, dry or wet conditions. I don’t know how they are keeping him now, either. I think I will get to go next week for an adoption appointment and I should be able to see their enclosure… they look like closed chambers from the photos I saw but they weren’t up close
How do I edit my name?… Turk is now Fiona and my ex has custody of her. I am getting the baby in the picture from a reptile rescue hopefully this week. His name is crush but I think im Going to change it to FreddyMac.

Hello, I have just moved to SLC and brought some art with me. I am a collage artist and used to care for tortoises and iguanas in Tucson.
I made the tortoise art in the picture—it’s an 11 x 14 paper collage on a canvas board. He’s been in a box for quite a while now and I’d like to donate him to someone who would give him a good home out of the box.
Anybody out there who would like this paper painting?
Thank you
To Tammy, Krista, or Zovick: Thanks so much for the helpful info! When I try to “buff” her beak, she tucks her head in - any suggestions? Ty so much

You might need to take the tortoise to a reptile vet who may be able to get it done for you more easily than you can do it yourself.

Shawn. I am sorry but have no personal experience with these turtles. I have chosen to limit myself to N American turtles as far as my aquatics over the years.

ok thank you mark
Hello! You just commented on having a leopard tortoise the same age as mine. Due to the home set up she required a set up in the basement and therefore an enclosed unit. Hopefully I can get more responses from people regarding my first area to concentrate on (substrate/flooring). The size is 8' wide by 4' deep.
Hi there. I know its late in the game but if you have any info on Egyptian tortoise breeders, I would really appreciate it. Thanks

I recently bought my wife a tortoise for her birthday. He is now our son and the center of our lives. His name is Meriel.

My wife was skeptical at first when I bought my first tortoise but now she’s attached to him/her as much as me! It’s such a joy to have a tortoise 🐢
Just recently bought a Marginated Tortoise and I'm IN LOVE! He is a month old and is the most cutest tortoise ever, he loves taking naps with me and he loves being with his mama. I often let him walk around on my bed and he always comes too me and lays either on my neck or my stomach. I'm not sure why he does but he loves to cuddle.I've never seen a tortoise with such personality and never fails to make me laugh.
I am making MONSTRO! available...but he is going to be $2000! I really don't wanna let him go at all...but am putting more time into my wolves...having less time for him!
