Deciding I wanted to befriend a tortoise was a no-brainer. Deciding which type would thrive in mile-high Southern Utah desert was much more demanding. After months of searching the net I came to the conclusion that the Hermanns or Russian would be best for the area and my lifestyle. We have cold, snowy winters and sunny 85-90 summers but humidity here is only 15-20% so most tortoises can't even be considered. I have a basement perfect for wintering.
Between the two, Western Hermanns seems to be the winner...but I can't locate one in the US. Does anyone know why that is? If anyone here knows where I can buy 2 unrelated babies or young westerns I would love to hear from you.
This looks like a great site with serious tortoise lovers. I hope I live up to the rest of you.
