I am new to Tortoises but not to turtles!
We just upgraded "Rocket the flying turtle" to a 125 gallon tank and my wife and I got to talking about our next addition to our family! We talked about another turtle, we talked about a lizard, and then my wife brought up she had always liked Russian Tortoises. That lead to some research and book reading, but then I saw and read about sulcatas. I have no idea why but I fell in love with them.
So long story short, we are looking to adopt one.
We live in Nebraska, so we will have an indoor area, an outdoor pen and the ability to transistion inbetwen pretty easy.
So first thought, know he will be inddor or outdoor durign the summer, any issues with being in Nebraska? When indoor, he will have his own room/pen area.
Any thoughts so far? or better yet any sage advice? I will take all I can get!
I look forward to chatting with all of you in future.
