First of all thank you all so very much for all the great information, I've been reading the forums for some months now, it's been great
Here is the situation:
I live in The Woodlands, Houston, Texas.
I have a big garden with a wooden fence surrounding it.
We'd love to have just one tortoise roaming around the garden.
These are the things to consider:
- Has to be a medium to big species, at least 10 inches
- Omnivore (I breed super worms mealworms and roaches for my lizards)
- Can live in this area (very hot for the majority of the year, only gets cold in winter, rains a lot)
- Does not burrow a lot (don't want it to dig under the wooden fence and escape)
- Is not too colorful (we prefer mostly dull colors instead of bright)
What do y'all experts think could be a good species, with those things in mind?
Thank you in advance!!!
