Helloooo! My name is Jon, and I live in South Mississippi. I enjoy baking and woodworking. My love of turtles and tortoises started when I was a kid. Growing up there was a Eastern Box Turtle that would always show up and eat the dog's food right out of his bowl. We called him Speedy. I would go out on the front porch and sit next to him and tear up bite size pieces of bread for him to eat. It's what my parents did for him, as he was coming around long before I was born. Now I know that was so bad. Sometimes after he had his fill he would hang out and sometimes he would walk off into the yard on his way to wherever. It was like that until hurricane Katrina. I have been stalking y'all for months. I have learned a lot here, so thank you. I believe I stumbled across this forum a few years ago, but decided it wasn't the right time to get a tortoise. Now I'm back on the tortoise train. I have been trying to decide which species to get that will thrive and live comfortably in my area with the humidity here. I'm torn between Redfoot, Ibera Greek, Hermann's, or a Russian. What are your opinions on these species and why?
Thanks
Jon
