Hi from the Desert

Hi , My name is Duane we recently acquired speedy who is 1 year old according to his previous owner. He seems healthy and active, loves them pellets more than anything ! We also have 2 Parrotlets, an Indian Ringneck Parrot, and a miniature Pinscher ! What a zoo ! LOL

Hi Duane welcome to you and Speedy.
Lots of info here and caresheets on his species, enclosures and beginners mistakes to help keep him happy and healthy.
So read search and ask as many questions as you like someone will soon be along to point you in the right direction.

Hello, Duane, and a very warm welcome to Tortoise Forum to you and Speedy.
I had a tortoise called Speedy for many years as a child.
We love photo's of torts and enclosures here if you could manage it?
But he looks lovely from what I can see in the avatar picture.
