Hi Everyone,
I am a teacher in Michigan. I have a variety of reptiles in my classroom and at home (a bearded dragon, 2 corn snakes, 2 crested geckos and dwarf African frogs). I was recently given a 10 year old Russian tortoise. I only had him for a month and a half when my niece adopted him and moved to Nebraska. I missed having my tortoise. He was very active and a joy to watch. I had read many posts on the Tortoise Forum on tortoise care (Thank you all for your great advice!) and saw the name Carol S popping up as a great breeder. I am delighted to say she had hatchlings available and I now have an adorable baby tort! Thank you Carol for all your support! I am still looking for that perfect name. The baby tort and bearded dragon take their daily baths side by side (different containers of course). I am looking forward to many, many enjoyable years with my tortoise!

Thank you! I have visited Saginaw, but it has been a while.
Oops! Somehow I posted before I was finished and took too long to edit. I'll get the hang of it.
Thank you! Believe it or not I actually found these two posts while researching through the forum. They are both very helpful!Hello, Amy, and a very warm welcome to Tortoise Forum.
