it come out from shell and shout MERDEKA!!! 1malaysia janji detepati

Sounds like you did not read , learn or researched enough before attempting to get a tortoise as pet !!

But YES they do eat hay - all sort even those sold for rabbits ( any different ? )

Cheers

No la, havent get yet, still preparing this and that

Ok terima kasih, scared nanti timothy hay for rabbit is like difference for dog food n cat food

Good to hear you preparing as much as u can b4 getting it !! Hay is hay different from processed / pre-prepared food ie can or dry food !!

Cheers

may i know 2inch Sternotherus 屋顶龟 howmuch ??

Can help me to sex this? Tq

Male ??




Female ??

i m a bit worry the female is a male ;-)

if the end of the " V " is a bit protruded, it is a male?

hye bro samwise, can garden soil be used as substrate, do we really need a basking spot since the temperature is quite high here in semenanjung and would you recommend a 2 inch sulcata for beginner tortoises?

The " V " protrude is just on the outside right ? Just done more comparing ( quite a few animals - some mine some friends' ) Some of the Female do have protrute anal scutes just like Male !!

But if Male , the protrude will be thicker ( both inside and out ) beside the concave-ness of the male's plastron !!

Cheers

I'm newbie here for Sulcata tortoise, anyone can recommend which shop or seller in from which selling the bedding for tortoise, as well the UV light? I got myself a 2feet and half aquarium.

Thank you.

Hii, aquarium might not be suitable to house your sulcata...

For now ( at most 1 year ) is OK except Galapagos or Aldabra who grow real fast !!

If possible get 3 ft and above tank to house your Sulcata !!


Cheers

Thank you bro.

Currently i just got bedding and a 25watt light bulb for them.., and i keep doing research.

Keep it simple but not missing the basic
Housing - Bedding , Hide , and Heat

Diet - High Calcium High Fiber GREEN or specialized pellets , supplement powder/liquid

Cheers

Ok shall prepare a hide for them. By the way i planning to get Mazuri pellets for them too.

What it means by supplement powder and liquid?

I stil havent any obvious concave-ness on the plastron, they are almost 8-9 inches d

by the way. wats ur experience with mazuri diet?

issit ok if i plan to feed them 3 days a week with mazuri, n other days with vege ?

not sure if they cause pyramiding, but tort really like it n grow fast with it.

Mazuri - not easily/readily available to me so I do without ( Did try a few sack which i bring in from Taiwan or Singapore ) No real difference noticed on adults !!

Will pre-prepared pellets affect the fertility in the long run ? - noone can give you the answer , as for me I still prefer fresh food at most dried hay included !!

Grow fast as in how fast ? 3" or more a year or faster ? Curious !!


Cheers
