Again, Hi everyone! I narrowed down my search to two sole species. The red-footed tortoise and the leopard tortoise. I just love the larger, but not huge size of the leopards, not to mention their cute "shy" personalities (as babies) but the outgoing personality and again, the beauty of the Red-Footed tortoise have got me stuck. I don't like the smaller (not a small tort though) size of the red-foot compared to the Leopard tortoise, but things can be sacrificed. I live in Ohio, where all seasons are unsuitable for well....anything LOL, except for summer, early fall ,and late spring. My tort will have a large (50-100 sq foot outdoor pen) to romp around in. The winters, early springs and late falls however, have me worried. I can also build/buy a 5x5 tortoise table for my tort, but I will always go bigger. Would 5x5 be alright for a home for a male tort of those species? Which, in your opinion, makes the better pet? Thanks, and feel free to suggest other species, I am open! I ruled out The Mediterranean torts, for their size, and Aldabra, Galapagos, Sulcata, and Burmese Black Mountain torts (still not sure about browns though) for their size as well. Thanks for your help!
