Hi all I’ve been thinking about possibly adopting a tortoise into my little family but I have a few questions. First off I currently live in Georgia so does anyone know any reputable reptile shops/breeders in Georgia? Secondly, I have a little bit of experience keeping tortoises but nothing crazy so what is the best smaller species of tortoise that are also best for beginners? Is there a specific species that is more friendly than others and is there a species that stays small enough to be kept in the home if given adequate lighting and space? We have a strict HOA so getting a tortoise that would need to be housed outside is not possible for me and may not be possible for me for a long time. I’ve read Leopards and Hermans stay relatively small but would love some more breed recommendations to look into as well. Thank you!
