Welcome to the forum! You've come to the right place for advice on care for tortoises! I have a russian tortoise and i just love his personality (Russian is similar to the greek) i highly recommend them or a hermann. As for enclosure, building one is quite easy and costs about an average of $20, depending where you get your supplies. A plastic tub works just as well, and can be bought for even cheaper! But good luck, and welcome again.DanaLachney said:I'm from Louisiana and was thinking of a Redfoot or Greek I'm just having trouble finding the right enclosure as in whether I should buy one, make one, go plastic tub or what to use :-( so many options I'm on tortoise overload lol
