Hi,
I am new to the forum and starting to research more about owning a tortoise. I have made the decision to go with a Russian (although, it was close between a sulcata and Hermann's)
I just find the Russians really cute and a good choice for me. As, this isnt just my first tortoise but, my first reptile! I have had many animals from a horse to a mouse. I always wanted one growing up. but, was more into taming crazy hamsters.
I plan in the future and when, I have enough space to get a larger tort. They remind me of more docile horses and just so fascinating to learn about... I feel like a little kid back in a library trying to gain as much knowledge as possible (I would read the dictionary for fun so, this is a little better than that)
I have access to a garden for fresh veg&weeds. Starting my own garden just for him as well Going to build him an outdoor enclosure during the warmer months.
*note: Im slowly getting my supplies together and plan on not impulse adopting/buying from a breeder (its hard though ) If you have any breeder suggestions please let me know!
