Hi all,
First time member here. I’m not sure how to post here, I hope this is the proper approach for support. I am so glad to have found this forum! I need help with our little foot. Once I have confirmation of this being the way to go, I will share our situation.
Thank you!
I was told you might be able to help me. I posted pictures on the thread... "few days ago she said she wanted us to look at Tortie because she thought she saw another crack. I am up loading a couple pictures of his shell. I don't see a crack like the last time. And as I was doing some reading on this Forum I am hoping for some help. Thanks in advance."
Hi Mikki, I see you are in Spring Hill - I am in St Pete but planning to move to Spring Hill. My Frankie is about 6 years old and weighs about 50 lbs. I'm trying to think ahead about his enclosure & house. Are winter temps routinely a problem in SH?
hi Tom,
I am new to this site, so my apologies if I’m not reaching out correctly. I couldn’t find a way to PM. We are currently looking for a sulcata baby for my son for Christmas. Yes, we understand the commitment that goes along with owning a sulcata which is why we made him wait 5 years. I stumbled upon your care information and I just want to say thank you.
Hold on for the ride. My Stumpy is now almost 20lbs and 14" long and 10" wide at 1yr. 8.5months. Will probably be 25lbs at 2 years. Just posted a photo of him by the wood stove and those bricks are 6.5 inches. I have another little one that is growing slower... thankfully.
I am new to the forum, and we have a Sulcata that is about 30" and close to 95lbs. He has a large burrow in the yard and I'm wondering if I need to heat it for the winter. Any thoughts or suggestions? He has a heated house but can push out and return to the burrow. We are in the Houston area so the weather is hot and can be pretty chilly at night. 40's and a few nights dipping into the 30's.
Spent time in N. Little Rock on work years ago. Still have a girlfriend in Sherwood.
Today's question for you. Have you ever had a really sensitive tortoise? She's a Russian I've had several weeks; probably 7 years old. The ad said field raised. She has been quiet and a good eater. I took her out for sunning this morning, put her in a 14 x 10@
Hello mr Tom so ive been using the orchid bark and my boy seems to love it but i just cant seem to find the fine grade variant its only ever the bigger chunks i get it in 8quarts bags at Lowes the brand is bettergro
I live in south central Mississippi. I prefer cold weather, so this summer was blazingly hot even for us. I have my first two tortoises, Russians, who have to live inside because of fire ants and minks.
