Burmese like more fruit and mushrooms, also try to add more animal protein, they like it wet and cooler than sulcatas. Keep in mind this species is the closest tortoise to a pond turtle, from which torts evolved. Try to find a cb one. The wild caught guys do not do the species justice, keep an eye on the kingsnake classifieds. Cut your sister some slack, you will get a chance to get even.

Email me if you need more info.

: What do burmese tortoises eat? I want one to "replace" my recently deceased sulcata hatchling but want to do my homework before buying one on impulse. Does anyone know where I can get a captive born one? Thanks.
