be-careful log hides are dangerous
hi all,
just to say be-careful of the log hides you can get from pet shops, mine just nearly started a fire, i just walked in where my tortoise are kept and met with a room full of smoke, my tortoises have pushed there hide under there spot light and it has burned away, I'm having to chuck the whole light away as it had burned too so just be-careful of the wood hides, here's a pic of the hide afterwards, |
