Should I keep them separate?

[Romel]

Hi
I have one Indian star tortoise. It was male, now I got another one its female. Both age approximately 4 years. But I can’t understand how can I keep them. Should I keep them each other, or separate??????
Anybody knows about this please tell me…………..

Thanks

At the very least, you will want to keep the new one by itself for quarantine time. Some do that for a month, some us will do it for a year. Then you can try to put them together, but always be ready to place them by themselves if things don't work out.

They would likely do better if they are housed separately. When they are older and mature, you can put them together for breeding once in a while.
