Happy Spring everyone. I’m happy to say that Rock & Roll made it through their first winter of brumation. They look happy and healthy. Still not moving too much. They’re still pretty much dormant. Is there anything else I need to do. Also, because of the rain there are lots of weeds coming up between the rocks. Should I pick them or will R&R eat them?

Good day everyone. I have different species of tortoises available for sale. Redfoot, sulcata, aldabra, leopard, albino, star and hermann tortoises available. You can contact me for more details.
Been along time, glad to be back
I am afraid the vet did not agree with Daisy’s prognosis. And made me surrender her to a rescue.
She said she was suffering from liver failure. And a rescue needed to take care of her. Every time she moved, her skin would flake off.
She was out growing her shell and that was very painful. All because she hasn’t hibernated in who knows how long.
The toenails and beak were the least of her problems.

I was reading a comment and lost it when I was trying to login.
It was concerning the health of my inherited three toe. I will look for a vet for it tomorrow. I have more photos to share.

Tom, Adopting a young Redfoot in Colorado. Will have an outdoor enclosure but the tortoise will be inside too. Would your 4X3X3 enclosure doubled meet her space needs as a full grown Redfoot? Current pricing with shipping (80526) and availability? We bring our RF home on 03/19. What approach is used with your enclosures to be sure the humidity is at the right level?
Happy!
Juju the Tortoise is in need of a new home. :'( Please visit Juju the Tortoise on facebook to see how well grown and loved he has been for the past nearly 10 years. Looking to rehome to a more appropriate climate to someone who will care for him and love him for the long term.
I have question for Tom.so I have been a good tortoise father lately and bathing Milly for between 1-2 hrs daily and she loves it.So my question is about her pyramiding ….I can see that she has it but it seems to affect the front half of her shell more than the rear half. Is it because I’m finally doing things right or do I still have something wrong?

Hi Tom planning on buying grass seeds or seed mix from groworganic.com, i want to add to all of my 3 outdoor enclousures (sulcata, leopards(babckoki and giant) and aldabra) a mix of grass seeds(maybe bermuda, orchard, rye or timothy) or the horse pasture mix that you recommend, my question is should i buy all of the above and make a mix to all 3 enclousures?

Tom hope all is well, going thru some really cold weather . I have my adult Indian stars in a 8 ft enclosure in my garage. I have 2 che’s and 2 heat lamps and a UV bulb. When it gets really cold I also have a heating unit in the garage. I want to get the heating and lighting correct once and for all. What should the heating temp be on both sides and should I be using a thermostat to keep the temp consistent ?
