Welcome to the forum! I just joined yesterday, so as one newcomer to another I welcome you! Your torts are all so handsome!

? I'm definitely giving them a lot more consideration as I learn more. They seem like great little torts!

Okay, that's what I was thinking too. I'm still leaning towards the Russian or Hermann's tortoise.

Thank you!

? I don't think I'm ready for one of those big boys yet!

That is a nice looking car! I can respect that and I'm always glad to listen, and heck, maybe I'll learn something :cool:

Those are some handsome torts! I hadn't considered one of those, but I'm going to do some more research about them now. The main thing I noticed is that they average around 12 inches as adults. The indoor habitat I'm going to build will be around 7ft by 4ft. Would that be too small? Outdoor...

Hi! From what I've read I was originally considering a Russian tortoise. But @Ink mentioned Hermann tortoises, so now I'm looking at those too. I'm really open to any tort that is good for beginners and would do well where I live :) I probably won't be joining in much on the car talk. All I...

Thanks for the welcome! Everyone here as already been so helpful, and I'm very thankful for that :)

I'm sure Opo is a very happy tort :) . I can honestly say just what I've learned today has shown me how much I need to learn about owning a tortoise. If I would have went straight to a big retailer and adopted a tortoise I know I would have been doing it wrong. I definitely "stumbled" upon this...

Thank you for the welcome! You are definitely right about getting all the help you need! I've only been a member for a little while and I already feel like I'm learning so much!

Thank you for the resources and I will begin looking into that! Those are some beautiful enclosures pictured. I'll definitely reach out to everyone once I know more of what I need.

That's funny because I actually looked at their website earlier today. Being new to the whole thing I'm just wary because the first site I looked at was Tortoise Town, but then I saw some scary stories about them and said nope. Hearing that @TylerStewart has a good reputation on the forum makes...

I appreciate the thought! I'm honestly not sure how soon I'll have one, but if I do get one before then I'll let you know.

Thank you! I'm really glad I found this place before adopting my tortoise :)

Thank you for this! The more information, the better ?

I haven't taken a look at them yet, but I definitely will now! That's so awesome that you have 3! I would like to have multiple some day, but for now I think I would just wanna spoil one until I get the hang of everything, ? Thank you!

That looks like a wonderful resource! I'm gonna go give it a read now. Thank you!

Thank you!

Hi everyone! My name is Michael and I'm brand new to the world of tortoises. I'm literally a stage 0 person because I don't currently have a tortoise and have never owned one in the past. I do love tortoises though and just haven't really been in a position to adopt one until now. I'm looking...
