Hi, my name is Hollie. I love in South Texas. I have already been a member of this forum for more than two years, but I've never posted anything. I have been reading the things people write to try an learn more about tortoise care. Specifically, I am interested in getting a Russian tortoise. I got one a few years ago, but he escaped our yard one day when I wasn't paying enough attention, and we never found him. One of our neighbors said they saw someone pick him up, but we never heard anything else. However, I still want to get another one soon, and I will never make that mistake again. Anyway, I don't know what else goes into an intro, so greetinge to all, and I hope I can become a bit more active.

Greetings & Welcome to the Forum. Yep….you have learned two important things already. Secure enclosures are non-negotiable issues & Russians are great escape artists!

Hello and Welcome. You did just fine on your intro. Sorry about losing your first tortoise. At least you did learn from it and that's great.
