If you plan on two, they cannot live together, tortoises don’t work in pairs. You can often find Russians on rehome sites
Feel free to check out these housing threads, here’s the one for babies, it covers correct equipment(uvb, heating bulbs, lighting etc), correct levels, importance of a closed chamber for younger tortoises(only way to maintain the humidity you need), appropriately maintaining the humidity, safe substrates, there’s lots of visual examples for everything, and a really handy diet link to check out! If going with a greenhouse, the lower the ceiling height, whilst still allowing for recommended bulb height, the better! But I’ll add some more ideas below for closed chambers

This is the one for adults indoors

This has inspiration for indoors and out

Lastly, this one here is probably most important to go over and keep on hand, it’ll help you avoid the wrong bulbs, substrates, housing etc, I always encourage double checking purchases on the forum too before buying

Best of luck on your search!

Please hope you are thinking of me I have 25 years of working with tortoises I would love to care for your 2 also
I'm wondering if the 'hare' part of your Russian hare tortoise might have supposed to been 'male'? Darned auto correct! Let me know and I'll fix it.
Please keep me in mind

What exactly is a Russian hare tortious?
What are you looking for I have two pens of Russian tortoises 1 male and 3 females in each I have 25 years of working with tortoises and I will even pay $50.00 to the postage to send them to me.
These 2 torts need homes .... Right? Why in the hell would you allow these 2 to breed and make more Torts that need homes? "Let's solve the homeless Tort problem by breeding more ... Sounds stupid."
Sorry but I had to say something for the interest of the Torts. Providing these 2 a home but in the process you create dozens more that have a high likely hood of suffering the same fate, Retarded.

Breeding tortoises is how you stop those who take tortoises out of the wild for the pet trade. But This is the great USA, and everybody can say what they want.
