[Andry Ltp]

Is it dangerous to keep different young torto at one cage? I've heard about cross infection..

Hi Andry Ltp:

Welcome to the Tortoise Forum!!

Its not as bad with captive born babies as it would be if one or more of them were wild caught. But still...having said that, its always a good idea to have separate habitats for different species.

What would you like us to call you?

...and may we know appx. where in the world you are?

Hello and welcome

They are completely adorable, but I agree with Yvonne that they should be kept separately.

Looking good, they should be kept separated as mentioned..
