Ok @Destbean I'm with you on this one. An app would be better and more affordable

Ok so are we going to do this or just continue to talk about it

@Tom if we were to do this u get dibs on the Sulcata article

Yes there's flaws in the plan but I believe we can do this if we put in the time and effort

@Alaskamike very good point

Their isn't a book or an article that I know of that goes over how to take care of each common pet tortoise species. I think that as a forum we can combine our knowledge and make a book on what tortoises are best for certain locations. Best indoor or outdoor tortoises for your area etc. As well...

@Maitaimommy i respect Toms opinion deeply. He's extremely knowledgeable and has saved a lot of tortoises and owners. In my opinion if u have 2 separate enclosures available putting 2 together could potentially work.

Im going with tortoises over turtles for these reasons 1. No saminela 2. No water filters etc 3. Easier to spend time with 4. Diet is cheaper I love turtles though an hopefully in the future I can have more

How much room can u make? It could work if u have like an entire back yard to spare. I've seen many private collectors keep multiple Hermans and Russians. Especially if there both Female.

Are they the same species and same size? What is the size of the enclosure and the size of the tortoises

Trying to learn something new everyday

I'm new here and found this conversation to be very interesting. I know this topic has died down but from my experience. Working with over 30 species of tortoise and keeping some myself. The best scenario for keeping multiple species in one enclosure is if there hatchlings from the same facility...
