New Hermann Owner

[tortilover2299]

I would like to purchase a Hermann Tortoise but first I was wondering if someone could give me some tips. I have never owed a tortoise and I would like to have this one's enclosure inside. Can someone give me the basics on the tortoise table, substrate, food, etc. Also, how many times a day should it eat? How should I keep the humidity? Any basic information for a new owner would be very helpful and appreciated.

Hello and Welcome Your goal should be to house the baby inside at night and outside during the warm summer months. When they are young, at least a couple hours a day outside would be good.
Take a look in the hermanns section and read the sticky threads. Other Hermanns owners will be on to help you further, I don't own a hermanns.

Hello. A bit of a late welcome from me. How are you doing with your research? I saw you other posts on contacting Chris, of Hermanni Heaven. Good choice!
