Sun bathing !!

Cheers

Ahhh its make sense now. Thanks! We can replace the sun bathing with artificial UV light right? So how do we know which type of light suitable with our species? Or it mostly the same?



p/s : Just have chance to really taking care of my pet now

Hi does anyone know where can I get reptile carpet in KL/Selangor area?
and how much it usually cost?

Hi Guys,

I noticed the right & left cheeks of my 2 star tortoise looks like skin being peeled off from the flesh --> reddish
Is it some kind of disease?

Also the female will make some kind of soft noice & also noise which sounds like blowing out air from the noise. Why is it so?

I am bringing them to see a vet soon just to be safe.

Cheers..

So silent this thread nowadays......

Heyya All,

I'm looking for any kind hearted person that can let me adopt female star tortoise
reason being I want to breed my male star tortoise and his other companion one
is too small and the other is his brother.... *sigh*

Thanks.

Hi everyone, i kinda like tortoise.

Can anyone recommend me a species where it can grow large size?

Currently a university student, want to take care of a small one, and keeping till i old.

Prefer a species that can grow big n live on land.

Sulcata get pretty big ( top 5 in the world )and pretty easy to get nowadays and don't cost that much ie 400-800 a pc !! Care-wise not that hard as well !!

Cheers

Bro, "pretty easy to get nowaday"?!?!?!
Dont mind share with me where is the location? I m looking for long time.

In adpost.com a guy getting heaps in soon ( last batch sold out ) another guy selling ( should have ready stock !

In Sabah a breeder selling direct and advertised in adpost.com just not that long ago ( less than a month ago )

Need me to post link here ?

I know at least 2 more Sarawak seller who got sulcata in stock

Cheers
