QUOTE(valjean @ Nov 10 2008, 11:51 AM) seems to have alot of BURMESE STAR WANNABE in the market. Guys, instead of asking whether yours is a burmese or a indian. why not google up and check the difference. You will get a better understanding on the diff btw them. if you ask us, we will just answer NO is not a burmese. Therefore do some reading on star tortoise. For those who say you see this and that at this particular price bla bla bla. Dude, check the price in overseas and local pricing that was once offered. YOU AINT GETTING FOR THAT PRICE that you mention not by chance. The resemble or look like but THEY ARE NOT. so just move on and admire the beauty of burmese star. Uzairi...still remember the burm you keep. hehe Nice eh ?  |

But all 3 make good , easy to care for pets !!

More sunlight? Basking makes them more active. And basking helps them digest some vitamins. Move more, digest more, can eat more I guess.
