Russian tortoise care/ Horsfield tortoise care. • How to care for your Tortoise. • In this video we'll be looking at Feeding, housing, hibernation and breeding. • The Russian tortoise otherwise known as the Horsfield tortoise, is a small tortoise species, with a size range of 13–25 cm (5–10 in). Females grow slightly larger (15–25 cm [6–10 in]) to accommodate more eggs. Males average 13–20 cm (5–8 in). • In captivity, Russian tortoises’ diet can include Romane lettuce, Plantain and other dark leafy greens. The diet should be varied and may include juvenile dandelions, clover, chickweed and other wild weeds . • Water is important for all species; the tortoise. Tortoises should be soaked in warm water up to the mid shell. Tortoises typically empty their bowels in water to hide their scent; this is an instinct, and it also helps keep their enclosure cleaner. • Russian tortoises do not require a CITES Article X certificate. • In September 1968 two Russian tortoises flew to the Moon, circled it, and returned safely to Earth on the Russian Zond5 mission. Accompanied by mealworms, plants, and other lifeforms, they were the first Earth creatures to travel to the Moon. • Click the link below for more Tortoise videos • • Tortoises • #tortoise • #russian • #horsfield • #care • #management • #reptile • #tortoisecare • #advice • #information • #pets • #tortoiseowning • #tortoiselife • #petlover • #tortoiselife • #reptiles
