I'm a mom of four children and we have one Rio Grande Slider, 2 bearded dragons, 1 dart frog & 3 labs. I do not have a tortoise yet but I am doing my research before buying or adopting one. We are in San Diego and our tortoise society has great tortoises up for adoption. One problem, I haven't announced it to my husband I want a tortoise or possibly a boxie! I do love looking at different enclosures to gather ideas. I'm really leaning towards a red foot! I would love a sulcata because we are on two acres but I think he would flip! So I'm here to lurk and learn at the same time!
