Terry, an unsexed Horsfield will be 4 this coming October but sadly, his or her heartbroken owners are having to find a loving home for Terry because they feel they are not doing enough to give Terry the best life they should be offering.

Re: Background on enclosure
Thank you. There is a ledge which is about 1/2 inch there which the lids sits on but I think I will have to make it a bit wider as I do not like the lid being on really.

Re: Common Groundsel
Thank you Nina, I did not feed it to him. I have an app on my phone which identifies plants so have been going out to see what is there for him to eat. This one came up but at least I know not to give it to him. Thank you

Re: Background on enclosure
Thank you. The top tier has a little house which I can take out. I thought he would sleep in it so I put lots of substrate in there. He tends to sleep under the platform. He does, however like to use the top tier to try and climb out. I only take the lid off if I am there as he quite often ends up o...

Re: Background on enclosure
Hi Nina, hope you are well. I attach some photos, as you can see he does have 2 levels and logs, small rocks and even a little base to climb on for his food. He was fine in there and did not scratch and bash about until I put the wallpaper up last week. I feel I have frustrated him by putting it up ...

Background on enclosure
We have recently got a new table for Terry which was just plain wood. We decided to put a background on 2 sides to make it more interesting for him. Since we have put the background on, it is a forest scene, he has spent most of his time trying to go through it. Scratching at the wall etc. I am not ...

Advice Needed - 3 year old Herman
We have a nearly 3 year old Herman tortoise who has stopped eating and moves very little. Up until about 4 weeks ago all was fine, he was a good eater and very active. He now will not eat and sleeps all the time. We have seen a Vet who has carried out a blood test and x-rays - all was good. We have ...
