Most recommend either Hermanni or Horsfieldii as a 'first' tortoise.

When looking to purchase please do not purchase via the internet or petshop - you risk purchasing an import/wild caught tortoise.

Please refer to Tortoise Trust Web - Start Page when doing your research into the tortoise's requirements.

thats Hermanns and Horsfield by the way
i have two hermanns and they are quite easy to keep


tams how many tortoises do you have?

oh and i found a breeder in chelmsford and hes selling his torts at £85 each and they are due to hatch next week

Please feel free to ask any questions, dont be fooled by the info given by petshops re: vivs, pellets & heatmats.

Better to ask now and get it right for the tort's sake than have to back peddle and amend!

Tamie
