Hello from Wisconsin! I got my first tortoise Ernie 2 weeks ago. I'm reading all of the questions and answers here with interest, trying to learn all I can.

Hi, and welcome to the Forum!

Is Ernie a Greek tortoise? We have a nice care sheet pinned at the top of the Greek section.

 

[Deedledee]

Hi Yvonne! Ernie is a Hermanns tortoise. We just love him, he's very friendly!

We have a GREAT Hermann's care sheet pinned at the top of our Hermann's section! Those are beautiful tortoises.

Thank you! Just found the section for Hermann's and I will print that sheet for reference. We want to make sure Ernie is happy and healthy, so far so good. He's active and curious and very fun to watch.

Hello & welcome.

Local Reptile shop had some Hermann babies last month, I really had to talk myself out of buying one..... no space or $!!!!!

Congrats!

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! Here is another picture of Ernie. Maybe I'm biased, but I think he has tons of charisma and charm!
