Day in the Life of Tank: Caring for a Leopard Tortoise

[@thepourchos2848]

Tank is a beautiful, happy, active looking shell baby. You do a great job of taking care of him.

[@yolandanelson1863]

I love the way you care for Tank and his activities of the day. You're doing a great job with him❤

[@emilyynicholee2556]

Hey guys! Let me know what you think of Tank's Day!

[@avie103]

Loved it! 💕

[@emilyynicholee2556]

Yellows thankkks

[@caitlinbickings4454]

I love it! This is great inspiration for me. I have a year old leopard and just moved to the Orlando area, so once we have our own house I plan on setting up something like this! :)

[@reckerman4u1]

Sounds like he's well taken care and loved. Tank's handsome!

[@s3dney_]

Loved it can't wait to get my tortoise just like tank 😍😊😘🤗💝💞

[@livy4954]

TANKS FACE IS SO ADORABLEEEE!

[@Antsshawx]

Got 2 of these beautiful creatures so friendly and affectionate

[@2700Cactus]

Can we please get an update!!!!

[@timothydawson3352]

You should grow his vegs in back yard too so he can eat when he wants. Or maybe grow it raised flower bed for him. Just a thought. Your set up is awesome he a is lucky turtle.

[@jackpepper2501]

The leopard tortoise is my favorite. Enjoyed your video with Tank. I'm hoping to live somewhere someday where I can have one. Thanks for sharing. JP

[@GingerGirl315]

Tank is so cute!!! Love watching her eat! 🐢

[@laurynduty9428]

I know im seven months late and this is annoying but him*

[@Carlgorey1234]

How old is tank and love watching your tiktok KZbin and quack she's a great tortoise and her shell is beautiful

[@thelittlethingsinlife239]

Great set up. Much better than some I've seen on KZbin (from a fellow tort owner)🙂💞

[@ladybugmama99]

Tank needs a pet of his own!! 😁

[@janyahmurrpet7923]

Umm no

[@Shaden0040]

His shell is pyramiding. He needs more access to a wallow of wet mud, and drinking water around your yard.

[@the2bros864]

I love watching your KZbin channel and Tik-Tok and I love tank so much he is funny

[@emilyynicholee2556]

Thanks for all the love 😊

Great fun to watch and learn. I think Tank needs larger swim bowl!

[@pattyeconome7700]

I have a Hermann tortoise I love to watch Tank on your tiktok and now on youtube.

[@SuccessforLifester]

3:52 I like this water dish. Very hard to find a good dish suitable for tortoise. Is there a brand name for it ?

[@avie103]

Awww so cute 🥰 came from tik tok btw :)

[@emilyynicholee2556]

Thanks so much for coming to watch! Glad you enjoyed it

[@ImpulseHobby]

Make him a couple of wet hides to prevent further pyramiding. The Leopard tortoises live in the grassland. Their camo proofs that. I believe he is constantly stressed without tall plants. Look at him, he is trying to hide behind the little ferns. You should plant your yard more different plants.

[@briellewhitehead8428]

she knows how to take care of her tortoise. leopard tortoises usually have a little natural pyramiding if the tall plants scared him we wouldn’t go over there but he does. i have many tortoises and the thing that annoys me the most is that people like you think u know how to take care of HER tortoise she knows what’s best.

[@76597659y]

Really because leopard tortoises do not like humidity they are from an arid climate.

[@Chrischone2]

@@briellewhitehead8428 no tortoises have that much pyramiding with proper care my leopards do not have that and they are much older

[@Chrischone2]

@@76597659y they need it badly as baby's which is where most pyramiding comes from but as they approach adulthood they do not need nearly as much because their shell is mostly full developed

[@kylong4997]

Rain or being sprayed with water can actually make leopard tortoises sick.. as long as they have a water dish and shadey places to cool off they should be fine. They only need to be soaked one or twice a week as a baby. When they are adults they don't need that. Just thought I'd let you know so your little dude doesn't get sick

[@chvckkkkkkk]

Yeah, also kinda worried about the really big pyramid on tanks shell…

[@Tracykobebean124]

@@chvckkkkkkkit’s common for some leopard tortoises to get pyramiding, even in the wild. But in captivity we just give them too much pyramiding, just a tiny bit is fine as long it not so much. If it is too much then that effects their spine obviously.

[@Tracykobebean124]

I still try to make the shell smooth as possible though.

[@Antsshawx]

I have 2 that size indoors un around the house to cold out side need too introduce more water

[@Sophievibes2hard]

This is so cute I also have a little leopard baby but this vlog is from four years ago what does Tank look like now???

[@ReeferNoob23]

Some tortoise do terrible in a humid environment depends were the tortoise is from some come from a very airid environment

[@VexyProd]

I’ve had a leopard tortoise for 2 years and wanted to know what the pool of water was made of because I have just started putting him outside (used to live inside) and I’m about to build a cage very similar to yours. Also what soil and plants were in there because I wanna make sure it’s healthy for my tortoise

[@DANPAD10]

We want an update on tank! 🐢

[@asmak8118]

Hi!! Did you get tank with the pyramiding or did he develop it?

[@bluraymex23]

[@kodikeates5519]

They hibernate

[@jillv.5948]

Kodi Keates no they don’t ! These are exotic tortoises and don’t hibernate.

[@andersnrregren9087]

I cant use tap water where i live evin tho we used to drink the tap water here my plants dont like it so we stoped drinking it and start using rainwater for all the animals and plants but rain water have no calcium but allso no bleech or chlorine in it so rain water is a hit and a must here

[@westwing238]

I have 2 juvenile leopards myself. yours look very healthy.

[@emilyynicholee2556]

Thank you so much for saying that. I hope your leopard tortoise are doing well too

[@jrich905]

Did you use something as a mold to make Tank's pond?

[@ansleyrussell7637]

Not saying it’s not winter right now though

Goldfish if taken care of properly can live up to 30-40 years and grow up to 24-30 inches long.

[@User-qt6sj]

I have a big question so I have a baby turtle is like 2 weeks old and it has the same exact of design on his shell but I though it was a gofer turtle plz help lol

[@mikkivinen4869]

That's a lot of calcium

[@tyroth5843]

I thought you shouldn’t give your tortoise lettuce

[@emilyynicholee2556]

Some types of lettuce aren't great for tortoise like iceberg lettuce but red leaf lettuce is good for tortoise!

[@shawn-oldaccountl6748]

@WD-40 Deatroyer have u ever in your life seen a cactus 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@rosepeltplayz4920]

Question: has Tank ever tried to eat the fake grass on the ramp?

[@sitlalyguerrero840]

Do you have any other pet so you can show us

[@Plen_isdabestYeS]

I have a 2 turtles we found them in a river the male is tank and i got his name from u and the female is sophie🙂

[@LindaMoganOsborne-dm9cc]

Tank is super cute ❤

[@armonia9758]

Goldfish can actually live up to 15 years. The longest living goldfish on record lived to age 40 or something. It's false information that they do not live much and unfortunately in my country the pet store owners give false information to the people that buy the fish so it will die and the people come buy another.

[@vassilidebs6158]

Is it ok for tortoises a very hot place ? In summer it’s between 50°C and 35°C and in winter 20°C to 30°C is that temperature ok or is it to much?

[@squirrelslayer6837]

It would need a place to cool down. Anything over 100 may be too warm. The problem with having a specific place for them to cool off or warm up is them not utilizing the prepared area. My region gets both too hot and too cold at times. When it’s cold I have to literally put him in the shed with a heat lamp, he never seeks it out, even if it were freezing outside. He’s better at finding a cool spot but during heat waves I make sure to cool him down or even bring him in. In nature they are in a climate where they don’t have to work hard at getting out of extreme weather. Leopards don’t hibernate or dig unless (unless laying eggs) so the surface temp is it. You can have a place with a lot of shade and a good amount of humidity available (large moist shrubs etc). Just google many sources because there is a lot of bad info out there

[@Chadblake1]

Hi! Tank is beautiful. Isn't his habitat a bit too moist?

[@emilyynicholee2556]

Vincent Emilio nope! Moisture and humidity is extremely important for tortoise

[@kurtl4761]

First rule before adopting a reptile: Do your research first. Don't get one and then figure out what you have to do. Find people who have the kind of reptile you want and ask questions. Research takes time, so don't rush it. There are too many adult reptiles put up for adoption because people weren't educated beforehand.
