The first pic is my tortoise up close.
the second one is it's home. the purplish light is the UV light to keep it warm.
i think its female. the bottom of the shell is bumpy. doesn't have a concave shape in.
the male died earlier in january this year. it's eye had an infection. like some yellow resedue.
and it died. was so damn sad. anyway, tell me anything that i'm missing out on taking care of it.
i feed it leaves in the aquarium. it's planted by my grandma so it's free of pesticide and other chemicals.
i give it some water some of the time. i'm afraid too much moisture is not good for it.
i sometimes change its died to carrots or cucumbers. i do take it fo sun bathes around 4-5 times a week.
it's nose currently has some water coming out. i saw a thread and someone said it is cause of lack of sun?
i left it out in the sun fo 45 minutes, it got sun burned i think. its tip of the nose had a white layer of thingy and the tortoise was like exhausted and dry. so i don't sun bathe it that often anymore. =\
PLEASE GIVE ME SOME POINTERS ON MY TORTOISE! I LOVE IT VERY MUCH AND WANNA TAKE GOOD CARE OF IT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!
If u have a very important tip for me, please add me in msn kenneth.ooi@hotmail.com and tell me immediately.
Worse comes to worse, i might need your number standby incase of any emergency. Thanks. =D

You should discuss this in TTT coloum not here... seems Star Tortoise is ILLEGAL.
As you mention your ST size just 5cm ( 2 inches ) how can u know either its Male or Female? Normally ST only can know their gander when they are 4 inches & above only.
Im sure you didnt do any research before you buy your Star Tortoise right?
the purplish light is the UV light to keep it warm
- What type of your UV light u use? The function of UV light is not to keep them warm. Do you provide them with Basking Lamp? Do the tank got
cover? What about you Humidity level?
i feed it leaves in the aquarium. it's planted by my grandma so it's free of pesticide and other chemicals.
- What type of leaves?
i sometimes change its died to carrots or cucumbers
- You can feed your ST with carrot sometimes but not cucumber. Please check the TTT Forum to know their proper diet.
it's nose currently has some water coming out
- Your ST now is currently having RNS
