Russians are pretty easy keepers, the best website on them I've found is russiantortoise.org. His face is adorable, you're definitely going to have a hard time not getting attached to that little guy :P
So this morning while I was cleaning out Rambo's cage I noticed his scutes seemed further apart then I've noticed before. I was wondering if he could be growing? Unfortunately I got him from petco so I have no clue how old he is. I attached some pictures if that helps, sorry they're horrible...
I hope you are okay! I'm sure your redfoot will be fine. I was basically the only one I know who felt anything. Everyone else is saying they felt nothing, but my bed started moving and I thought it was a ghost :o haha
Congrats! I'm surprised my mom let me have a tort, I didn't even have to beg :p One day my friend told me she got one so I asked my mom and she was like "I always wanted a turtle!" But, I'm not a fan of cleaning out filters and tanks so we ended up with Rambo my Russian :)
