What strength wormer has he given you? You should have a sample checked. In my opinion its best only to worm when they have worms. I have found my torts go off there food after worming and can lose weight. After the stress yours have gone through via plane and courier I wouldn't want to inflict an unneccesary stress on there system.

Hi, you need to be giving nutrobal it is a vitamin suppliment.
Limestone flour is there for use if the tortoise requires it same as cuttlefish. Non of those vegies are ok, the salad leaves such as rocket, rommaine, little gem and raddicio are ok in mderation no more than 25% of their diet the rest is weeds, tortoise friendly plants and flowers. Ade

Is that a combined bulb? Sounds like it is so that is good. Make sure it is hung perfectly verticle and in position if these lamps are not hung like this they wont last very long and being expensive you wouldn't want that.

Have a look at this link within the forum. I believe it is the same place you bought yours from. Thought you might find it interesting
