PANCAKE TORTOISE FOR SALE

Some of the rarest baby tortoises for sale are called pancake tortoises. All of our African pancake tortoises were born here at the tortoise farm, where they were raised from birth. Most species of baby tortoises are a little bit cheaper than African pancake tortoises for sale online.

Humidity

At the tortoise farm, all of the baby tortoises for sale, including the pancake tortoises, are kept at 75% humidity. As temperatures go down, humidity should also go down. Adult pancake tortoises do well in environments with about 45% humidity. When grown up in the right amount of humidity, adult pancake tortoises should have smooth shells. In the wild, pancake tortoise for sale grind their shells into rock cracks where they hide from birds that want to eat them. This keeps their shells very smooth.

Temperature

The temperature should be between 85 and 95 degrees for pancake tortoises. We keep the average temperature for baby African pancake tortoises around 88 degrees. Adult tortoises need temperatures that are very close to those of hatchlings, but not exactly the same. Meaning the hot spot and cold spots should be further apart for adults who need to thermoregulate even more so than pancake tortoise hatchlings for sale.

Habitat

There are many different things that can make up a pancake tortoise’s home. The important thing is to get the temperature and humidity just right. Also, giving them the best place to live and places to hide, such as caves. Remember that Pancake tortoises for sale are very good at climbing.

We made sure the walls are high and safe because of this. If you give your Pancake tortoise a home with a closed top, you don’t have to worry about problems with climbing. It is best to keep your baby pancake tortoise for sale at a temperature of 85 degrees on average, with a hot spot of 95 degrees. We recommend almost the same for adult pancake tortoises, but the humidity can be lower, in the 40–45% range. Baby cakes need humidity just like baby tortoises for sale.

Diet

The best thing to do is give your pancake tortoise a wide range of fresh greens and vegetables. At the tortoise farm, we feed all of our tortoises a “tortoise salad” that is pretty much the same. We make a nice tortoise salad twice a week and feed it every day.

We use a wide range of greens, such as Romaine, Collard Greens, Mustard Greens, Kale, Endive, Squash, Shredded Carrots, and the occasional Tomato. By chopping everything together, your baby Pancake tortoise will be able to get a wide range of vitamins and minerals that are important for healthy growth and nutrition. Make sure you choose the best tortoise farm and tortoise breeders when looking for your next tortoise for sale.

Supplements

For reptiles, it is best to give them a calcium supplement and a multivitamin and mineral powder. At the tortoise farm, we mix Vionate and Calcium with D3 in a 50/50 ratio and dust the tortoise food twice a week.

Care

Care for an African pancake tortoise for sale is the same as care for most other types of tortoises. Baby pancake tortoise for sale need warmer temperatures, less changes in temperature, and 10 minutes of water every day. The same food should be given to baby pancake tortoises as it is to adults. In our pancake tortoise care guide, we talk about things like humidity, temperature, diet, home, and more.

Lifespan

Like most species of tortoises for sale, African pancake tortoise for sale can live from 50 to 100 years. In the wild, Pancake tortoise for sale have flexible shells so they can stay alive after being dropped by birds that eat them.

Amazingly, pancake tortoises have changed over time to have a flexible plastron that helps them survive many of these drops.
