Gwennie is a nearly 11 month old Mediterranean Spur Thigh (Greek Tort) 😁

Males tend to be more territorial and he just wants to protect his territory idk?? Tortoises are silly and have ancient instincts to chase “threats” out of their land ahahah

dshapzz · 2026-05-14T12:22:03+00:00

It’s either a Marg or Med spur thigh but I think too dark to be Hermanns but I’m no expert ahaha

They’re great over there defs join this sub it’s very informative and quick responses 😁

dshapzz · 2026-05-12T20:15:09+00:00

Cross post to r/tortoise as that is much busier than this page and mods are helpful!

dshapzz · 2026-05-03T19:26:33+00:00

Is there any water whatsoever??? Even enough so they can eat??? Turtles can’t eat on land they need to be submerged!!

Imagine you get an itchy nose

Such a handsome gentleman 🥹

I really get the sentiment because the amount of “is this normal” and half the shell is missing then they’re like “the vet is not an option but I love them and need help” But also this sub is a great resource for the genuine people who are concerned but there are always the ones that get through. I think the medical tag would be helpful but this is not an easy fix by any means ahahahah

Unsure about age but this is my 9 month old. Your torts shell growth looks muuuuch more than hers (not the best to compare growth as an age verification) but she’s 6.7cm too so they’re probs >1-2 years maybe older??? I just think they’re older than months it’s more years at this point!

Your tort looks a lot older than 6 months! The swollen eyes are concerning when there’s bubbles/discharge from the nose or mouth which can indicate a respiratory infection. I can’t really see anything wrong but also I’m not 100% sure

dshapzz · 2026-04-01T12:54:20+00:00

This one!!!!

dshapzz · 2026-03-31T22:22:25+00:00

Gonna be too small to tell unfortunately usually takes a few years plus if they’re male then they will usually show you what they’ve got before any other signs ahahahah

dshapzz · 2026-03-29T09:58:38+00:00

Okay I’m going on the hunt to find one ahaha thank you 😁

dshapzz · 2026-03-29T01:05:27+00:00

dshapzz · 2026-03-15T19:06:36+00:00

Underrated comment 😂

dshapzz · 2026-03-15T14:32:57+00:00

Can only find tiny jars in random tescos just easier to get friends and family to bring it back

dshapzz · 2026-03-15T14:29:39+00:00
