I just bought 2 -what seem to be baby russian tortoises-one is about 2 1/2 inches the other is about 3 1/2 inches-the girl i bought them from said they were about 1 year old-she had them for 6 months and couldnt give them the attention they needed. They are is a 55 gallon rubbermaid container-I feel like this is too big for them because they are sooo tiny. They are shedding around their nrcks is this normal-any other advice is appreciated-I was told to give them alittle extra calcium in their diet since they are so little. Im not sure how to moderate the temp in this container-Right now there is the Repti bark as substrate-is it ok if I do 1/3 of the container with hay? -any advice is appreciated-
