I have narrowed my choices for my first Tortoise down to 2, The Yellowfoot and the Marginated. Between these 2 which one would you choose and why????
Thanks to those who answer this your input and experience means a lot to me and will definitely help me make my final decision.

I would pick yellowfoot. To me, they're more aesthetically pleasing.

Yellowfoots are bigger and need more humidity compared to a Marginated...can you commit to those requirements?

The size and humidity are not a problem. I will be able to supply both indoor and outdoor enclosures. I think they are both "eye candy" and beautiful in their own way!!!! Wish I had room for both.

Where are you? One of the main factors for me in deciding which species to work with is which ones I can most easily keep in my climate.
