    tortoise and/or desert tortoise specific websites and forums?

    Hey folks,

    I've been chatting with a friend at work who turns out to have a desert tortoise (he's adorable!), Mr. T. In chatting with him, it sounds like the tortoise may not be getting the best spectrum of diet, so I told him I would help him find some care sheets, etc. online to help.

    I found the following two care sheets, which look pretty good, but I'd like to find my friend a good tortoise messageboard he can lurk on. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

    0.1 ball python (Cleo), 0.1 surinam bcc (Carmen)
    1.0 sunglow motley corn (Jenson), 1.0 albino burmese (Lourdes)
    1.0 cat (Nicky), some mooses and ratters, 1.0 hubby (Rick)

    The World Chelonian Trust is about the best site I've found for any type of turtle/tort imaginable. Here's what I found on "Desert Tortoise" caresheet-wise.

    Bid him/her happy endeavors!
