Hi, I'm new to the forum and joined because my 12 year old wants a tortoise. We have decided on a Russian because of the smaller size. I have read the care guide on here and so much other information that my head is spinning. I want to make sure I have everything in place before getting one and make sure we know exactly what it will take to care for it properly. I have only one question on set up, what kind of light fixture is best? I saw the clamp one isn't good, so wondering what type I should get. My main question though is since this is for my 12 year old should I just get a wc adult from the local pet store or would it be better to pay more and get one from a breeder that is an adult or younger? Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
