sifu sifu sekalian big big small small..can anyone kindly pls post their small setup of their star?

wanna steal some idea & wanna know what stuff to get & how to locate them like the basking lamp..actually the tank that posted by drexar earlier is not bad after all..can hold the lamp above..but duno how much will it cost..havent visit the shop yet

currently wats on my mind is

corn cob(bedding)
basking lamp(got uva & uvb) if can clip on the tank is better
1.5feet plastic tank(thinking to use as the mini setup) but no idea issit a good idea..not enough land for them

im wandering anyone had did a mini setup which can be located on their working table & so?

thanks in adv,

so tempted to get my hand on them again after 2 of my baby die  cry.gif

Most of the basking bulb only gives UVA, for UVB you still need the full spectrum fluorescent light. And like what samperth told you, no less than 2ft for the tank. And about the soaking part, i did my soaking outside of the tank 3/4 times per week.

Just use normal holder would do, just remember to check the wattage so that it works with your bulb.

Its either MBD or competition for food. In this case the more dominant turtle will get more food thus limiting the food for the small one.

QUOTE(camillenoir @ Dec 26 2007, 07:09 PM)
i sampled enough brands to conclude which tortoises/turtles love which.. example: stars are more attracted to sweet smell and bright colors, no matter how bland the food might taste; elongated and forstenii are not as easily fooled by colors/smell  etc etc etc smile.gif
everything tastes like candy when hayden's on screen  wub.gif

Hi Mentor Mentor , i have some questions here and hope can get some advise . . ..

1) Is Sweet Potato Leaves good for Star and Sulcata?
2) Is it a compulsary/necessity that all tortoise to discharge the white thing before the green stool?
3) Any Sulcata expert here? i need a lot of advise especially on their diet. Currently i feed it with sawi and sweet potato leave only. also i let it out to graze a bit on the grass (Cow Grass) ...As i read from the net, all the mentioned suitable food for sulcata seems hard to find . .  cry.gif

Pumpkin is easy to find. Sweet potato leaves are ok but not to be given as staple.

in garaje sale there is a chin breeder selling timothy hay..i wonder do those suit u?but those are dried type..

If its too dry to be consume you can always spray some water to make it a bit soft, this is recommended for small tortoises.

Is it the Alfafa that we give to hamsters?

Yes, but watch out for the protein level. High protein foods are not good for stars.

They are semi-terrestrial which stays on land and goes inside the water once in a while.

the price is a bit cheaper over here sam. if i recall correctly 2-3 inches are offered at rm250 at a petshop a couple of years ago, nowadays 3-4 inch goes 750. 

pet safari sold a big *ss specimen for rm900 a couple of months ago, same size with jalan pasar's rm1388 specimens (seasonal reasons maybe)

on the contrary, a seller on adpost is selling rm10k for 12"... last time i was offered a 10" for 1k, the extra 2" must've cost somebody 9k LMAO!
