Hello!
I'm a library/media specialist in an elementary school near Minneapolis, Minnesota. I'm hoping to adopt a Russian Tortoise for our library. I have a great enclosure. Anyone have any insights? Thank you so much!

I've had great luck finding Russian Tortoises in need of a better home through Craigslist.

How big is your enclosure. My experience is almost every single school pet is kept in poor conditions (much too small) and just teaches kids incorrect information about how tortoises should be kept. Do you have 4’x8’ enclosure? Or just one of those 2x3 “tortoise houses” or a fish tank? Neither of those are good care.
