I have been looking at many different tortoise species! And it is just simply overwhelming! I love the look of the Leopards but am concerned living in Iowa that it isn't warm enough(I keep my house set at about 60-65° in winter) but could put a heating pad under and a light over inclosure. I have seen Sulcatas and Russian's in person amd love that they come up to you and eat out of your hand! Some people are trying to talk me into Greeks because they stay smaller. But are they easier(need less humidity and heat year round )and than Leopards?? Also is it okay to buy from an online breeder that lives states away from me, or is that too hard on the baby? *If my requirements were outgoing personality, doesn't hibernate, ornate looking shell, not a picky eater, and can do well in Iowa(outdoor in summer only)---which Species of Tort would you suggest and why?? And where do you suggest I buy from? [Is tortoisesupply ok or theturtleaource even though they are far away for shipping]
