Hello friends,
Unsure of whether or not I'm breaking post rules by posting what is most likely a commonly asked question. I'm a college student who lives at home and have had growing interest in purchasing a tortoise, however, I'm unsure of what species (breed?) to get. A bit of background: I live in a 3 bedroom apartment and I'm on the east coast of the US. I know I can't house a Sulcata, which bums me out but I like to remain a realist and not take on larger than life tasks such as that. I'd like something medium-sized, but would that be manageable in an apartment? How would one even define a "medium-sized tortoise" species? Thanks in advance everyone; I really want to get educated on my choices before I commit to buying the living essentials, food and the tortoise itself.
