I have been contemplating for some time now getting my first tort but find quite a lot of conflicting information. Our local garden centre has spur thighed and horsefields for sale but they also recommend pellet food and vivariums as housing so I am thinking that they can't be that good. They are selling both of these breeds at half price at the moment so originally £199 reduced to £99. They seem very healthy and mobile and happy enough.
I picked one of the books up in the shop and that was written as if it was trying to frighten me out of having one. I shouldn't have one as I have a 2 year old child and they carry salmonella etc. They are extremely high maintenance... Can someone give me a truthful account of life with a tort.
What do you guys think?
