    Hi there, you have a healthy, happy Russian. You are obsessing as all new parents do. Me included!

    Intrested in getting a Tortoise which one would be best?

    Russians are the best. Have a 5 month old. Make sure if indoors that you use a soft, natural substrate like loose coconut fiber by Zoo Med. I was sold Repti bark and she could not dig or burrow. Russians must be able to do these behaviors to be happy.

    My baby Russian only will eat grated zucchini, red leaf lettuce and baby spring mix.
