🐢 About Our Baby Sri Lankan Star Tortoises

These baby tortoises are perfect for keepers looking to raise a lifelong companion — they can live up to 80 years with proper care. Start them right, and they’ll reward you with decades of beauty and interaction.

🥗 What Baby Sri Lankan Stars Eat – Diet You Need to Follow

Just like adults, baby stars require a high-fiber, calcium-rich diet. But with hatchlings, hydration and gentle introduction to greens is key.

Diet Plan for Baby Sri Lankan Star Tortoise:

• Finely chopped greens: Dandelion, escarole, endive, romaine (avoid spinach)

• Grasses: Soft hay, orchard or timothy cut small

• Cactus pads (Opuntia): Peeled and sliced thin

• Squash or zucchini: Rare treat (once a week)

• Calcium/D3: Dust food 3x a week

• Water: Soak daily for 10–15 mins to maintain hydration

💡 Pro tip: Misting greens helps hatchlings stay hydrated and encourages eating.

🌡️ Baby Tortoise Enclosure Setup – Build It Right

Babies are more sensitive than adults, so getting the right environment is essential to avoid pyramiding and boost early growth.

Ideal Indoor Setup:

• Enclosure Size: 2’ x 2’ to start (upgrade as it grows)

• Ambient Temp: 82–85°F

• Basking Spot: 95–100°F

• Night Temp: No lower than 75°F

• Humidity: 65–80% (daily misting + closed chamber)

• Substrate: Coconut coir + orchid bark mix (holds humidity well)

• Lighting: UVB 10.0 strip light + ceramic heat emitter

Add a humid hide box to help the baby stay moist during rest — crucial for smooth shell growth!

🧠 Temperament of Baby Sri Lankan Stars

These baby tortoises are naturally calm and observant, even at a young age. You won’t get sudden movement or flighty behavior — just a mellow little buddy learning the ropes of its new world.

Notable Traits:

• 🐢 Slow-moving, deliberate behavior

• 🧍 Curious but shy — will warm up with regular care

• 🛌 Very docile during handling

• 🌅 Active in the morning and early evening

These qualities make them ideal for first-time tortoise keepers, families with kids, or advanced collectors looking to raise a show-quality star from the start.
