Hi everyone! I am new to this forum but I have been keeping Russian / Horsfields for over 10 years. I just found the app for this forum so I thought I would give it a try as it seems I rarely have time to sit at my computer. I have always lived in Colorado, but recently moved about 1,000 feet higher. My current altitude is just over 7,100 feet. My previous outdoor enclosure was very well established and self-sustaining. I have just completed my new outdoor enclosure and was able to successfully move my indoor enclosure to our new home. It is rather large! I currently have two tortoises, Noah (male) and Big O (female). I love getting new ideas from other tortoise keepers and am always open to learning more about growing and harvesting edible plants.
