Hi Folks!
It has been a while since I have been on here. Long story short I moved away for school, and left my tortoises to be cared for by my parents. I separated my pair because all my male ever wanted to do was breed and I was scared he was stressing out my female. Well, now I am in a place where I can finally have my lovely kiddos back again. My plan is to build a 3x5 foot table for my room. However, I want to keep them together instead of having multiple cages, again. My question is... Will my male (if history continues) stress out my female enough to the point of exhaustion or death? I remember reading Greeks should be kept more so in groups than pairs, but I can no longer find a definitive answer. If the aforementioned is true, would another adult female make him more at ease between the two females? Thank you all in advance for the help!
