Hi there, my name is Corey and I'm from Denver, Colorado. I have two Russian Tortoises that I love to pieces. I have a male that I've had for 11 years named Sherman and a female that I've had for 2 years named Penny! I found this website by researching better ways in re-hydrate my female tort because plain ol' soaks weren't working very well and I found a great new electrolyte bath to soak her in. I love all the information here and I'm glad to finally be communicating with other tortoise lovers!! I'm also currently applying to the Colorado Reptile Humane Society to volunteer every Saturday to help with the Tortoises and Turtles. I can't wait and I'm so excited!! :tort:

I've also attached photos of both my little ones!!

Welcome to tfo! I also have Russians I'm wild for. Some of mine I've had for almost 20 years. They are a great species. Thrilled for you regarding the volunteer position. I hope it is everything you want it to be.

I love everything about them! From their personalities to the actual hobby of taking care of them! I hope to adopt more in the future when I move to a more year-round temperate climate to have many outdoor pens for various species :tort:
