Thank you! He really was. <3

They're Hermann's tortoises (Testudo hermanni). :)

Thank you! :) Yes, they need calcium supplements. I would recommend you to go and read up on hermanni tortoises if you are not already sure of how to keep them and feed them properly. I can't remember the name of the food I gave mine - it's been a couple of years now since I had them.

Thanks! It's from ExoTerra.

not quite 10,000 years

Yes, it's a heat and UV-lamp. ;)

It's just a normal flower pot tray. :) ;)

It's from ExoTerra.

Jessica Rannachan yeah

This is what was recommended for them by a couple of tortoise experts. It's not healthy for them to grow too quickly. As long as they are gaining weight at a slow pace as they're growing, it's good. I kept a meticulous chart of their weight gain in Excel, keeping track of their growth- and weight curve and it all followed the recommended increase really well. ;)

Tinwelende how can we have the excel... cause for my actual tortoise I thought it’s over ( I can’t follow the excel ) but for my new once x)

they do

waleed khalid no, they cant have any treats containing flour either NEVER feed your rabbit commercial "gourmet" or "treat" mixes filled with dried fruit, nuts and seeds. These may be safe for a bird or hamster--BUT THEY ARE NOT PROPER FOOD FOR A RABBIT. The sole function of "rabbit gourmet treats" is to lighten your wallet. If the manufacturers of "gourmet rabbit treats" truly cared about your rabbit's health and longevity, they would not market such products. Don't feed your rabbit cookies, crackers, nuts, seeds, breakfast cereals (including oatmeal) or "high fiber" cereals. They may be high fiber for you, but not for your herbivorous rabbit, who's far better able to completely digest celluose ("dietary fiber") than you are. Fed to a rabbit, the high fat and simple carbohydrate content of "naughty foods" may contribute to fatty liver disease, cecal dysbiosis, obesity, and otherwise cause health problems. Celluose caused one of my poor babies to die before i knew better, beacuse it caused a swelling in the abdomen

+Kitty Plays Minecraft shit i knew i was forgetting something, i just got a rabbit last night and ive been running after him all day making sure he has what he needs but the breeder i brought him from gave me a bag of food (a grain mix, which seems to have chopped hay? sun flower seeds, dried corn, pellets and some other stuff which im pretty sure he shouldnt be eating) ↀ‿ↀ" guess its time to weed out everything i can

Seth Hammer corn is really bad, ill give you some tips. These mixed foods are really bad. They are the leading cause of death in rabbits. Please go out and buy some burgress rabbit food pellets instead and slowy intruduce it asap. Rabbits shouldhavef one cup of pellets in the moring/evening . They need unlimited hay and should be eating there own body size in hay a day. They also need there body size in veggies at a differant time of day to the pellets. I would recomed getting your rabbit spayed asap to stop him peeing everywhere and that means you can get him a syaped female friend from a shelter. Rabbits do alot better in differant sex spayed couples. Rabbits are the 3rd most abanond pets in shelters so i would never recomend a breeder when you can give anouther rabbit a second chance. Alot dont have problems but the owners dont realise how much work they take. Anouther tip is to make sure on the cage size. The minimum for an indoor cage is 2x6 ft with a minimum of 3 hours out a day. An out door rabbit needs a 2x6 cage with a 8x6 ft run. You can also littertrain a spayed rabbit. Spaying and neutering your rabbit is very important. Not only is it the responsible thing to do so as not to contribute to more rabbits looking for homes but will also improve litter box habits, lessen chewing behavior, decrease territorial aggression, and give your rabbit a happier, longer life. Have your rabbit neutered between ages 3 1/2 to 6 months, depending on sexual maturity, by an experienced rabbit veterinarian. All rabbits at Luv-A-Bun Rabbit Rescue are spayed or neutered before they are adopted. -Warf Rabbits will click or grind their teeth when content - similar to a purring cat. Some rabbits may bite as a way of communicating - do not get upset at the rabbit, try to understand what it is trying to tell you: It may be in pain It may be very afraid It may be very frustrated and out of options Some rabbits may bite as a way of showing affection - these bites are really “bunny bites” and tend to be a form of social grooming - if you had fur, you’d appreciate it, but since you have skin, it tends to raise red marks and welts. Try not to give the bunny any negative feedback since he is showing you affection - instead reposition yourself so he can’t nibble on you. Rabbits do a lot of nonverbal communication, for example: Thumping - warning, danger, or “pay attention to me” Flopping on side - total contentment Periscoping - curiosity, getting a better view around Chinning - there is a scent gland under the chin and they rub it on things that they want to claim When rabbits are happy and feeling playful they will run, jump and twist in the air all at once. This is the notorious binky! When rabbits want to be left alone or feel threatened, they may make a grunting sound to give you a warning. If you don’t heed, they will box you with their front paws. If they still feel threatened, they may bite. - Warf Rabbits are highly social creatures who love the company of others and who bond for life. Your bunny may be much happier with a companion, and we encourage anyone considering a second rabbit to do so. There are some rabbits who prefer to be only bunnies and enjoy the company of their human companions. Rabbits are very social animals and appreciate living with other rabbits, especially if they spend much of the day without human companionship. Usually a neutered male and a spayed female are the most successful matches although male-male and female-female bonds are also possible. Before attempting to bond two bunnies, it is strongly recommended that you try some bunny dates to see if the two seem interested in each other. Contact us and we can arrange a bunny date for your rabbit to meet one of our lovely singles! It is very importnt to know that bonding takes time - do not put two rabbits together to see if they will get along - they will fight and potentially injure or even kill each other. Because bonding takes time, you must be patient, and initially, you must closely supervise both bunnies when they are together in order to break up any fights and prevent injury. In the beginning, you should let your bunnies get used to each other by keeping them separate but where they can still be near each other, such as in cages that are side by side but not touching. Once it appears that the bunnies are tolerating each others’ presence and they no longer have their ears pinned, tail up, marking and chin scenting but are instead lying side by side in their separate cages, then it is safe to introduce them outside of their cages and in a neutral area. Be prepared to break up a scuffle but be careful doing so as you may get bit in the process. Allow them to have supervised meeting times several times a day until they are comfortable with each other. You will know this is so when you see them lying side by side, sharing food and playing with one another. Only after you are sure there is no aggressive behavior or body language can you leave them unsupervised and able to share a cage. -Warf Suggested Vegetables (feed a handful of a variety of these suggested greens several times a week) Alfalfa Basil Beet greens (tops)* Bok choy Broccoli (mostly leaves/stems)* Brussels sprouts Carrot and Carrot tops* Celery Cilantro Clover and Clover sprouts Collard greens* Dandelion greens and flowers (no pesticides)* Endive* Escarole Green peppers Kale (!)* Mint Mustard greens* Parsley* Pea pods (the flat edible kind)* Peppermint leaves Radicchio Radish and Radish tops Raspberry leaves Romaine lettuce (no iceberg or light colored leaf)* Spinach (!)* Watercress* Wheat grass (!) = Use sparingly.

+Kitty Plays Minecraft ahh thank you so much, im unable to go out to buy pellets until tomorrow so ill just keep him on hay n some veggies tonight. as for the shelter stuff, we actually dont have one nearby but theres plenty breeders and people who've had accidental litters but i most definitely wouldve adopted if i could. he was only born early may so hes about 2-3 months old but i will get him desexed as soon as i can. i currently have him free to play in my room with a dog crate, litter tray and as much hay as he could ever want, ive also made sure he doesnt have access to anything that could hurt him like wires n things that could fall and startle him. thank you so much for all the advice!!

The tub is 1,4 m x 60 cm and the torts were around three years old at the time. ;)

+Tinwelende really?? isn't this enclosure way bigger than that?

It's actuallt just the bottom of a rabbits cage. Then I put some stands up with the lighting, which is made for fish tanks originally. The substrate is a mix between sand and soil. ;)
