Hi Maria, and welcome to the Forum!

We have a nice care sheet for the Russian (Horsefield's) tortoise under "Important Threads" in the Russian tortoise section.

Hello Maria from England welcome to the TFO from AZ, USA . As you read that Russian 's torts don't do well in pairs together .

Welcome, Maria, to TFO. We'd all enjoy pictures of your tortoises and their habitat. In that light, I must say we are all tortoise peeper here.
If you have specific questions and/or concerns, then please, by all means ask. You know the drill, the only lame question is the one not asked.
Again, welcome. We are, and soon you will be here to help.
