Hi everyone
I ve been visiting tortoise forum during last few days and decided to sign up as a member as everyone is so helpful. So, here's my story........I'm due to take custody of my god sons Russian tortoise aged about 5 years. We have a few weeks to plan for his arrival, hence reading up about care, housing etc.
I've searched forum on this question and still not sure so grateful for any thoughts (apologies if I'm going about this in the wrong way....never joined a forum before ) At present, said tortoise is a little neglected due to busy lives and doesn't get much attention however he is still in a busy household and there's always noise and activity and comings and goings for him to observe and hear. When he comes to me, I m worried that the change of environment plus lack of noise and comings and goings will upset him. He'll get much more 'one to one' attention but when we're out he'll be pretty much on his own all day. Will this stress him out? Thanks
