Hi. I have a small Cherry Head Tortoise not sure how old. I bought Forest Bark but it's made from Douglas Fir as a substrate over his coconut fiber because it's so messy I keep getting small bugs so idk if it came from the cypress mulch I had since it was outside. Idk what to do?

I completely agree with what you said about Red Foots. The two I purchased from you a few years ago are doing great! Turns out one is a boy, and the other is a girl. They love all kinds of fruit and greens, but mushrooms are definitely their favorite. I'm planning to build them a bigger enclosure this summer. Thank you for introducing me to these incredibly interesting creatures! Best wishes for continued success!

Thank you Richard, I’m really happy to hear they’re doing great and that I had a part in you falling in love with these amazing creatures!

For some reason, my Russian tortoises have finally you know but it’s been a month she’s not laying eggs🤨

[@ShadowsReptiles]

They don’t work the same way we do, they can breed and take months or years to lay. It does take a few months I believe after mating at least but I’m not sure to be honest. The most important thing for them is that they’re in season and I believe Russians might need to brumate as well although it may not be necessary all the time. (I’ve never bred them)
