Hello,

I have bin a member for a while, so I thought i'd be time to introduce myself

I am Jasper and im 15 years old. I am from North-Holland.
I started keeping tortoises in April 2015, I have one 7 year old female, one 6 year old female and one 6 year old male (Testudo hermanni boettgerii)
and one 17 year old female Russian (Testudo horsfieldii)

Edit: I started in 2015, not 2016

Welcome to the Forum, Jasper! When you get a chance, I'd love to see pictures of your tortoises and where they live.

Welcome to the forum you have a quite a creep of tortoise. I am sure they keep you busy. Please share pictures and the environment. Feel free to ask questions.

Hello Jasper. I can't wait to see pictures too. I have a little Russian round about the same age.

oh and yeah, they do live on stone. I know this isn't the best but I can't really change it because I live with my parents (im 15) and they are too large to live inside and I don't want them to live in a tiny space

good idea, but I am afraid they will just walk out the substrate over the whole terrace.
They won't. They will a little bit of it but you can use a little wisp broom to put it back in. It would at least give them some substrate for a rest from sitting on the rock all of the time. But really my tortoise likes sitting on flat rock too. He likes both depending on what he wants to do.
