Which one is better for me. Both are in my budget, I already have lighting, enclosure, just need substrate (Which is cheap 8-10 bucks), food got plenty of romaine lettuce, fruits, and will probably buy some tortoise pellets.
What I want to know is which one is more hardy and can eat more variety of things. My guess is the red foot tortoise. I want one that can be housed indoors or outdoors if possible. If kept outdoors I want one that isn't an escape artist or digger.
Budget anywhere from 100-150 for the tortoise and substrate, already got the rest handled. 3 Foot Tank and Huge 40-80 gallon rubber maid containers in my garage for our purchases @ the super show. Also I know I sound cheap and stuff with only 100-150 bucks for him but I'm going to the reptile super show and almost everything there is at a good price, good health, ect. Again going to get home lay down the substrate and there you go I have a tortoise buddie now or whatever I decide to get there.
