Hi my name is Michele and I am from SoCal. I am about to get my first Tortoise sometime next month but I have had turtles before two RES and Two Mississippi Maps. But I have always wanted a Tortoise and now I get to get one.

Those all need vastly different enclosures and will be much different in size once grown.
Will you be keeping it outdoors or inside?
I recommend deciding what type and then having everything ready and set up before purchasing a tortoise.

Yes I am going to make the enclosures first, I was thinking both since I have raccoon's and Opossum's outside looking for food. I want a tortoise that will get big but not too big. LOL
