I'm rather new to the forum, only been creeping for about a month, but I'd like to say Hello. I'm excited to have such a great resource to be able to turn to if questions and, god forbid, problems arise. It appears to me like everyone here is kind and helpful, which I appreciate so much. My wife and I love and care for a small zoo of animals in our house and not every forum, Facebook page, or website is as kind and respectful of others.
I don't currently have a tortoise but its been a dream of mine for a while, I'm hoping by the end of the year we are financially ready to take the dive and truly become a part of this awesome community.
Thank you

Hi and welcome - you won't find any better and more up to date information anywhere else.

I'm a newbie, too. Reading before I leap. My husband wants to build the enclosure, outside & inside. I want to start with one tortoise 4" or bigger.

We're trying to make our decision where to move to a warmer climate. So while I want a tort RIGHT NOW, I realize I have so much to learn before we buy one.

Thanks to you all for sharing your experiences & your wisdom.

We have 4 dogs, 4 cats, 2 rabbits, a mouse, a leopard geck, a veiled chameleon, a ball python, a bearded dragon, a savanah monitor, and a senegal parrot.
Nice. You live in Tennessee? It's quite tropical for most of the year (we have relatives there). Maybe a redfoot or yellowfoot? Of course, don't get your tort yet

I have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 2 senegal parrots, 2 aquariums, 1 Burmese Star tortoise, and 1 blue tongue skink.

I have 24 acres half way between Knoxville and Chattanooga. So many similarities!

My senegals are 18 years old. How about yours?

And welcome to TFO!

Our little hellian is only a year old. But we also have a small aquarium.
