Hello all! My name is Missi and I have been lurking here for awhile. My husband and I are looking for a tortoise, most likely a cherry head.
I do have some questions but will be doing some more searching on here and post them later.
Thanks!

Hi Missi and welcome to TFO! Nice having you here. What is it, that is drawing you to the Cherryhead?

I like their look, color, size and have heard great things about their personality. My main concern is humidity as I live in Colorado. Have not had luck keeping sphagnum moss moist for my frogs and gecko. Will keep experimenting.

Is your house itself, dry?

Yes its pretty dry. We do run a humidifier and plan on getting a small one to run in the tortoise's room.
