I'm so new ....

Hi there,

I'm new to the tort world ... I've always thought they were cute and I've always wanted one, so I finally went out and found one for a pet ...

I did a ton of research before I bought one --at PetSmart of all places ... He's a cute little male Greek tortoise ... Or at least they say he's a Greek (you know how the mass pet store biz is) ... I know he's a male, because I sexed him myself ...

For now he lives in a 50 gal rubbermaid, but I hope to find some good blue prints for a tortoise table in the future ...

Welcome to the forum

It is a Greek tortoise It's either a Jordanian greek or a Jordanian/antakyensis cross. I'd need to see a picture of the back of the carapace to tell for sure.
