Hello all. We are excited to join the tortoise family. We got a Russian tortoise our son decided to name turbo. I've already learned a ton of helpful information on here, so thank you everyone for sharing your knowledge.

Welcome! May I suggest getting rid of that feeder bowl and going with something shallower like a terra cotta saucer? What you have there can cause your new friend to flip over. I get mine from Lowes for around a buck.

That's actually one of the things I already read and was planning on getting something new for food and water. Thank you!
