Definitive guide for a non medical person to resource and realities on the commitment and intricacies involved in tortoise care you killed it girl did a great job. It’s a wonderful video.
When I first saw Fig I was like "I NEED A TORTOISE" and thanks to your videos 2 months later I have a russian tortoise named Little Cha Cha. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!
Great video!! Most of all I appreciate the warning you shared to anyone wanting to adopt a tortoise... That they are not a "starter" pet and can be difficult to care for, and you're right that vet care is super expensive!! I also love that you highlighted their life expectancy and commitment. I love it, well done!!! 😊❤️🐢💞
Love it! We have a Russian Tortoise who has brought so much joy to our lives. His name is Dusty. They are definitely more complicated than we initially thought but they are amazing pets that show love in their special tortoise way!
*Just found this video! Great little tortoise, Fig.* Just got my baby red-footed tortoise and love her. My very first tortoise and I chose a high-maintenance haha! I did tons of research and got her all the necessary things for her huge terrarium. Timer for the humidity and basking, stone slab to add with the floor substrate to keep her claws trimmed. I also have a tiny tub with a rubber ducky for her daily soaks. Yes! I soak her daily because Yahya begins drinking the instant I set her in the tiny tub and 10 minutes pass and she poopies. She will come to me when she sees me and once I hold her, she begins to fall asleep. Extremely social and I've only had her a week and love her to death. Wonderful video and hope you visit my channel and see Yahya. The most pampered red foot on earth. 🧔🏻♂️❤️🐢
I'm unfortunately surrounded by family members who dont take the best care of their pets it can really get to me sometimes since nothing I try gets them to change their animal care habits Its nice to see people like you take so much care to make sure that your pets have healthy happy lives
My boyfriend and I are working on building my leopard his upgrade enclosure and you’ve been a hugeee help in the process!! Thanks for the awesome education you provided on our little friends 🐢🖤
Great guide tyvm 😊 🙏 although it kinda made me feel bad for not providing everything u mentioned to my tortoises mainly because many of these things aren't available in the country where I live. But I do provide them with everything that is available here hopefully it will be enough for them to stay healthy and happy. 😊 Btw I love fig so much. Seeing him always makes me happy 🥹🥹
OUTSTANDING! You’re very soothing to listen to, Chas. I appreciate your detailed and thorough video. Suuuuuuuuper helpful (& informative), as are all your “instructional” videos. Thank you for taking the time to post this. It’s an excellent resource! 👏🏼😍 P. S. LOVE the feeding chart!
Fig is so cute! I have a 4 year old Leopard named, Tina, and I love her so much. I've had her since she was about 6 mos old. I have a few questions for you! 1. Does UV wattage matter? 2. The hamsteer wheel makes me nervous, did you have to train Fig to use it? 3. Did you have any issues with the faux plants being in his enclosure?
Hi thank u for posting this video I just had a question about the hamster wheel and which one specifically I should get because I don't know the size for walking on thank u
Hi sorry I just saw this! If you look at the description I have a link to “tortoise essentials” in there I have the hamster wheel linked that I recommend 🥰
Heyyyy I love this video ❤ I just have a quick question, do you know any breeds of turtle or tortoise that grows and stays the same size that Fig is right now?❤
I could use some help;; I'm from Spain and I've decided to adopt a tortoise. It'll most likely be a mediterranian species. I was planning on making a little habitat for them at my terrace but my mother told me that it'd be way too cold and they wont resist the winter! What do you recommend me?? An outside or inside enclousure?

It's just so important! Sometimes people forget how long they live.

Yayyy! I loved this so much! Thank you for another full length video!🙏🏻🙏🏻☺️ May I ask what brand/model is your larger humidifier pls?
It’s Aircare on Amazon!
@@through.the.lleaves thank you so very much!🙏🏻☺️
He’s so big🦾
He sure is!!
My turtle looks just like fig!
on an added note, Fig has a better home than most do!
Hi fig !!
Can you tell me what you use for humidifier?
How to clean the poop from the enclosure?
What if our tortoise peed in the enclosure and mulch?
Also, how big should the dog house be?
7 AM…Imma be up early
Hi thank u for posting this video I just had a question about the hamster wheel and which one specifically I should get because I don't know the size for walking on thank u
Hi sorry I just saw this! If you look at the description I have a link to “tortoise essentials” in there I have the hamster wheel linked that I recommend 🥰
how long/how many times a day can they be out of their enclosure wandering around the house? also how did you introduce him to your other pets?
Heyyyy I love this video ❤ I just have a quick question, do you know any breeds of turtle or tortoise that grows and stays the same size that Fig is right now?❤
With tortoises, they get pretty big. For turtles, musk/mud usually.
@through.the.lleaves oh nice thank you 💕
Watching Fig inhale that petunia blossom was hysterical. I love your blind tabby cat, too. I have a soft spot for differently-abled pets.
He’s enthusiastic about eating 😂 and thank you! Me too 🥹
Where are you going to get grass in the winter?
We grow it on the Gardyn hydroponic tower I mentioned!
I could use some help;;

Am I going to get a tortoise no did I watch this whole video yes
Hello
awesome video! i will NOT be getting a tortoise, thanks for all the info! definitely not for most people
what kind of cat is your cat, Kusa? i really want a cat like this.
Can’t wait to see him graduate to a cat wheel lmao
Omg right 😂
I have no interest in owning a tortoise solely because I know I wouldn't be able to care for it well, but I still love watching Fig. 💛
Did you cat have eyes?
No I have 3 cats without eyes :)
