Keeping Pb and PP together?

[ben32hayt]

Hi so I decided I wanted a new tortoise(s) it's either going to bee a single radiated, spider, or a juvenile het sunset hypo paradalis paradalis with a juvenile paradalis paradalis and possibly a paradalis babacocki. I was wondering if a paradalis paradalis could live with a paradalis babacocki. Thanks,Ben

I wouldn't. As juveniles their personalities are quite different and the Gbp will likely feel intimidated by the Gpp and their boisterous behavior. Plus the Gpp males are just straight out territorial and combative even as youngsters. As adults, interbreeding will likely occur and, in my opinion, be another tragedy of the tortoise world.

House them separately, and read this thread:

Tom, how about a het sunset hypo GPP with a GPP in the same enclosure? I can't imagine that could be a threat to anything.
