here's the photo, bout 2 inch, RM450. price ok?

Looks good. Better get it in pair as you will have a chance to breed them in future, since this species is relatively rare locally.

Also I assume the price don't come with Perhilitan license?

The price comes with license. I couldnt get 1 pair, got budget constraint, sigh.. both gonna cost me like a bomp...

Ahh its okay lah, you can pair him up in future. He have a long life ahead, no rush

Yeah, btw do you know whats their age for mating? the seller told me about 20 years old, i was thinking dafuq, by that time i already 50 years old

Normally pretty much at that age range.

They can easily life for 80 years old lol. Tortoise is a special kind of hobby/interest/love that really need a solid commitment. You might need to pass them to your kid as a family heritage

yeah bro. i bought mine,




i open up the top glass already, as the ventilation is bad.

Looks lovely.

Does it try to climb the glass border? Some guidance advise to cover the transparent glass border if the tortoise tried to climb it as it gives them perspective that they are trapped and there is world out there to be explore.

He is correct, by the way..missing out uvb light??..actually the glass tank not that suitable for tortoise due to the ventilation issue.
a d.i.y wood box would be better than tat..lol

Hi all sifu...

My Red ear tortoise started to breathe very hard with sound and keep opening mouth.... what had happen and how can i help with it?
Im thinking to go to vet now but all close... it looks so suffer!

Hi, im planning to get red footed tortoise, where do you guys usually source for their food ie greens? From the list i think the more common ones are sawi, red lettuce, rockets but whatabout dandelion leaves, cactus or hibiscus? Is there any place that sell them or do i pluck from roadside...?

Hi,

I usually just shopping in Tesco/Giant while buying stuff for the household. Flowers and cactus just pick around my home.

Also my tort diet is 50-50 between greens and Mazuri

Thanks for the reply! What kind of flowers do you feed your tort?
Also, do you use thermostat for your tank?

Hi,

Mostly hibiscus and common flowers.

Yep, using it. But mine is not really a tank per say. More like garden lol.

That's quite impressive, is it indoor?

Yep indoor.

Still, I bring out the little fella outside for a walk sometimes.

Anyone know the opening hours of Perhilitan cheras? Do they open on Saturday? Need to get the licence for my red foot. Thanks

bump

Finally this thread is visible!

ROTiJOHN, what's up on your tort progress? All fine?

No wonder I couldn't find it. Thought it has been erased..
