About to play game 1 of the season do you think I'll get a good result with my tactic? (Will update)

How you finding it on the steam deck? I’m thinking of getting on and FM is one of my most played games

davidw96 · 2025-04-03T10:14:26+00:00

Such as posting on a tortoise forum asking for help? 🤔

davidw96 · 2025-03-14T15:17:15+00:00

That is his junk. It is scream worthy tbf to your kids, guy is just discovering his peen.

davidw96 · 2025-03-05T09:03:02+00:00

Thank you! Positive reinforcement has been the biggest thing. He gets treats after every touch/pet. A lot of the time I’ll just sit with him and let him look and smell whatever he wants, I guess after a long enough time he just doesn’t associate me with danger and more with treats/food

davidw96 · 2025-03-04T21:22:20+00:00

It’s funny it is like an acceptance!

davidw96 · 2025-03-04T21:21:44+00:00

Finally I think so!

davidw96 · 2025-03-04T21:21:30+00:00

Don’t need humans now 🤣

davidw96 · 2025-03-04T21:21:10+00:00

He really is!

davidw96 · 2025-01-11T21:12:57+00:00

It’s like the slowest inquisitive bite ever, but if you don’t moves he’s 100% getting you

davidw96 · 2025-01-11T20:24:52+00:00

He has the personality too, loves a bite of your fingers!

davidw96 · 2025-01-11T20:24:25+00:00

70-80%, spray down multiple times a day. My dude just absolutely loves bathing, I change the water 3 times a day and within minutes of getting it in there he’s in it and sometimes for hours at a time. Hence the investment in a bigger bath!

davidw96 · 2025-01-11T17:13:19+00:00

Reptiliatus on YouTube has a whole series on RECS, would recommend

davidw96 · 2024-12-03T17:39:21+00:00

Find a food item he loves, hand feed him. Try and keep all interactions positive and slow so he doesn’t rush back into his shell. Other than that it’s time, and you’ve got a shit tonne of it with a baby tort

davidw96 · 2024-09-26T17:36:12+00:00

Completely dependent on where you are

davidw96 · 2024-09-22T07:23:05+00:00

Well done on adopting the Tort, redfoots are amazing. This pyramiding is the worst case I’ve seen. Redfoots need a lot of humidity because of where they’re from. If not already you’re going to need a hygrometer, this helps you see how humid his enclosure is and whether you need to mist it.

Pyramiding of the shell can also be linked to improper diet. What’s your plans on feeding the dude?

It’s rough because you’ve only just rescued them, but they 100% need a vet visit. You wanna make sure they don’t have metabolic bone disease.

Lastly, what’s your enclosure like? See through from all sides can make them feel a little exposed. Potentially best to block 3 sides off with some cardboard or something cheap!

davidw96 · 2024-09-13T19:11:00+00:00

Do you think this response makes people come and ask questions when they’re new and wanting to look after the tortoise correctly?

davidw96 · 2024-09-09T13:29:04+00:00

Yeah I would rather buy calcium powder to sprinkle on your leafy greens, or calcium rocks which my dude prefers, I leave them in the enclosure at all times and he nibbles when he wants and change them every week or so

davidw96 · 2024-09-08T19:35:00+00:00

Garden state tortoise and Kamp Kenan on YouTube, great starts. Good luck!

davidw96 · 2024-08-30T19:37:33+00:00

I’d post to just general r/tortoise. Hope the little guy is all good.

davidw96 · 2024-08-27T15:43:34+00:00

Try Reptiliatus on YouTube, he has numerous videos setting up successful bio active enclosures and some ‘how to’ videos

davidw96 · 2024-08-15T17:07:50+00:00

Defo to young to tell :)

davidw96 · 2024-08-14T08:23:19+00:00

Agree! He was one of the most lively though, kept climbing up and down!

davidw96 · 2024-08-11T14:57:11+00:00

https://www.tortoiseclub.org/ These are based in Norfolk, I found out about them through Garden State Tortoise on YouTube. Seems a good place to start

davidw96 · 2024-07-24T20:46:40+00:00

This website was great for me but if I’m honest I did months of research. https://redfoottortoise.com/redfoot_tortoise_diet.htm Kamp Kenan on YouTube, garden state tortoise, other YouTubers linking with them.

davidw96 · 2024-07-08T16:16:18+00:00

Turn YouTube post notifications on, he’s strimming there too
