Hello from New Jersey

[Rustybread]

The name's Kyle, I'm sixteen & I have a Yellow-footed Tortoise. His name is Rustning, he is about seven or eight months old. He has a nice 30 x 12 x 9 inch tank. He has coconut bedding, & he loves to eat shredded carrots. I'm planning on being with him for very long time.

Welcome Kyle! Your YF is beautiful and I love his home, with the "smoke" coming out of the chimney. Adorable! How do you keep the humidity up in there?

Thanks everyone! I decided to get a tortoise because I wanted a pet who would stay with me for a long time, and a pet who would be friendly but not out of hand for me. I have had reptiles as pets before, but never a tortoise, so I thought maybe a tortoise would be a great pet! And Thank you Terryo, I spray the tank twice daily, & always keep his spice plants moist.
