Hey everyone I have experience with turtles (fully aquatic turtles) but am just starting to learn more and more about tortoises. Ive always been interested in getting a tort and i know all the lighting requirments and everything like that having had turtles all throughout my life but i just had some habitat and diet questions.
So I live in southern Kansas so it gets pretty hot in the summer (90-100 day 60 - 70 night) and around 40 - 70 % humidity. I was thinking about a few different torts to get like a Redfoot, leopard, hermans, desert, spekes hindgeback, and black greek. I would want the tort to stay outside in the summer then bring him inside in the winter. So what im asking is what kind of tort is suitable for this climate and what would be the diet and habitat requirements for that tortoise.
Thank you and i cant wait to show him/her to all of you when i decide what to tort to adopt.
