Hey all!

I've always wanted to adopt a Russian tortoise and now I finally have the room and time to get one. I've been doing a lot of research on keeping them and this site has been a very useful resource.

I forewarn you all, once I adopt my tortoise you guys can expect a lot of questions and pics/brag posts.

I was wondering, are there any breeders or anyone with a young Russian tortoise available? Preferably someone from the San Francisco Bay Area. I'm willing to travel a couple hours out of the way to pick one up though.

It should be fun to get to know you all,
-Melanie

Hi Melanie, and welcome to the Forum!

Take a look through our "for sale" and "sold" sections and contact those members who have sold the Russian tortoises in the past.

Welcome! Good luck finding your Russian, they're great :)

They're beautiful and they seem to be a great first tortoise. I can't wait to get one.

I'm talking with one of the members on these boards right now with a couple of hatchlings. I hope everything works out and I get one of them!
