Well, hello. I'm new a member of this site but I've looked here a lot for information before deciding to get my Russian tortoise. I've had him for about a month so far an I am really enjoying him. He's already warmed up to me and isn't as shy as when I first got him. His name is Yuri, by the way.

Welcome! Are you sure he's a Russian? I can't completely tell from the pic - but he looks kind of domed for a Russian.

Yah, I'm positive. I think the picture is just at a strange angle. Here's a full view.

Hi! Welcome to TFO! Glad your enjoying Yuri. He looks a bit dry. Hopefully with more time with you and on a good diet and soaking/humidity it will get better looking.
