Ya I got her enclosure humidity perfect now Ya I'm at 4 tortoises haha good thing I have tons of space. I got her abunch of plants for her enclosures. I have both bulbs for her I just use the basking one for a little bit. I wonder if getting a humidifier and putting it in her room will help to. She's really sweet it's supposed to be his baby but I'm the one taking care of her of coarse lol. We're building half the back yard into outdoor tortoise enclosures in the spring. Right now I just have 3 small outdoor enclosures for the fall. She walks slow like she's this big giant it's hilariousWelcome back. Wow, you jumped into this tortoise thing with both feet read foots will need a lot more humidity than the Russians, so make sure the outdoor enclosure has lots of shade and lots of plants and moisture. Colorado is pretty darn dry but you can make it work. Just check out the care sheets and you'll find out what you need for that species. One thing I found out interesting about them is that they don't usually bask, so you don't need a mercury vapor bulb but you do need a UVB long fluorescent bulb. Now you can tell your husband he can help you build all the enclosures you're going to need
Awww, what a cutie.View attachment 190465 My husband surprised me with a new baby while we were shopping at repticon for tortoise supplies. Meet Foxy! My red footed tortoise I also scored some tortoise terrarium grass seeds for their indoor enclosures

Are you looking for a small species of tortoise or larger? They make amazing pets! I have 15 animals and their my favorite pet by farI have no tortoises! Hoping to get one eventually but just learning what I can for now. I just own two ball pythons.

Only get one if you do Russians they don't get along well with another or you would have to do a big tortoise table with 1 male 2+ females. I have 1 male and 2 females together and so far getting along great! I have a divider in middle of tortoise table and log hideout they go through to get to each side. If you get a Russian order online from tortoise supply backwater reptiles lls reptiles and get a captive bred baby. Adults you find in your local pet stores will be wild caught and can have parasites diseases. Plus babies are super cute! So fun to watch them grow and they grow slowly so tiny for awhile Russians are very easy to care for great for first tortoise and they have amazing personalities very hardy tortoises. Males are smaller than the females. I hope you get a baby soon!!Definitely the smaller species like Russians.
Russians are great ! Full of tons of personality love my Russians so much Perfect size tortoiseRussians are definitely the way to go. Quite easy to look after (in comparison to others), cute and stay fairly small. As Janelle said, don't get two though.

They are just a few of the pictures I have oh my Russian. I've only had her 1-2 months and already I have all of them photos, their personalities are just brilliant, (well I can't speak for them all, I've only had one). Good fun.
