Hello, I'm currently creating a home for a tortoise, but I am torn at which species to get... the Hermann or the Horsefield.
I'm in the UK, so the Hermann would require the paperwork and microchipping... I like the shell colour of the Hermann too.
However, I like the look of the horsefield because of the "beginner" aspect and the hardiness of them. I'm in the north of the UK, so we don't get much sun/heat with the weather so having a hardy tortoise is definitely a good thing.
Can anyone help me decide? Or are they both as good as each other?
Thanks,
Joanne.
