OK, Ive done all my research on greeks and russians. I am tossed up over which I would like to own. Im interested in personality now.....does anyone know which would have the "better" personality? Both of them seem like great torts but I know almost nothing about personality....little help please....

I do not know much about greeks, but my russians are pretty friendly and they love to hang out and watch what is going on. They will sit in my lap and have there heads scratched and just hang out.

I adore my Russians and really feel they are super personable. I have a young Greek and the adults I have seen in the Greeks were not the nicest in the world and they either bit or tried to breed everything they could, each other, leopards, desert torts, anything they got close too! My Russians follow me everywhere and are very nosey and always looking for a handout!

My Russians are very curious they watch me when ever I'm around. They eat outa my hand...and try to snack on my fingers. Look out they like pink toe nail polish...lol
I think alot of it depends on how much time you spend with them too.
