✨ Appearance – Shimmering Shells & Subtle Charm

What sets the Golden Greek Tortoise apart is its bright yellow-gold carapace with minimal dark markings. This morph of the Greek Tortoise is selectively bred for its color, resulting in:

  • A buttery golden to light honey-colored shell

  • Smooth scutes with minimal pyramiding

  • Cream or yellow skin tones on limbs

  • Large, expressive eyes and a sculpted beak

No two are exactly alike — each baby comes with its own unique gold pattern.


🥬 Diet – Mediterranean Herbivore Power

Baby Golden Greek Tortoises thrive on a high-fiber, low-protein, calcium-rich diet, mimicking the dry, scrubby terrain of their ancestors.

✅ Daily Diet Includes:

  • Dandelion greens

  • Collard, mustard, and turnip greens

  • Endive and escarole

  • Cactus pads (spineless prickly pear)

  • Timothy hay (shredded, mixed into greens)

  • Mazuri tortoise chow (as a supplement)

  • NO fruits or high-protein items (they disrupt digestion)

Dust with calcium + D3 powder 3x weekly to support healthy shell growth.


🏡 Enclosure Requirements – Keep It Dry & Bright

Golden Greeks prefer a dry and warm Mediterranean-style setup. Humidity should be lower than tropical species to prevent respiratory issues or shell rot.

✅ Indoor Baby Enclosure:

  • Size: 3×2 ft for hatchlings (expand as they grow)

  • Temps:

    • Basking: 95–100°F

    • Cool side: 75–80°F

    • Night: 70–75°F

  • Humidity: 40–60% (use dry mulch substrate)

  • Lighting: High-output 10.0 UVB, 12 hours/day

  • Substrate: Dry coconut husk, cypress mulch, or topsoil/sand mix

  • Hide Spots: At least 2 per enclosure

  • Water: Shallow dish + daily warm water soak (15 mins)

These babies love exploring and basking, so a variety of rocks, hides, and textured terrain adds enrichment.


🤝 Temperament – Calm & Curious

One of the best features of Baby Golden Greek Tortoises is their peaceful, mellow demeanor. Unlike some other tortoises, they’re not overly shy or skittish.

Expect a Golden Greek to:

  • Slowly approach your hand during feeding

  • Rest calmly while being handled

  • Learn to recognize your voice and scent

  • Enjoy basking in full view rather than hiding all day

They’re fantastic for apartment setups, classroom pets, and collectors looking for a low-drama species with high visual appeal.
