I can't pick a single favorite.

I like 7 of the ones on your list, plus a couple that would be in the "other" category.

Sulcata for sure. But the more pictures people post of there leopards, they're definitely the runner-up.

Of course, sulcata is my favorite, and is the only one I have experience with. I'd like to own a box turtle some day. Leopards are so pretty.

Redfoots, regular color or mango. They’re not too big,not too small, don’t burrow and easy to keep outside in FL.

I love big tortoises, having an aldabra would be a dream, I also love sulcata.
But my little favorite is the greek, the one I chose to keep. Reasons I chose the greek and chose it is her cuteness, but lifespan, small size and fully herbivore.

Had to vote red foot. I love smaller tortoise species, and red foot tortoises have awsome personalities.
