Hello Everyone My name is Matt. Just got a russian tortoise about 4 days ago. My son Bryce and I have really been researching the russian tortoise and decided to get one. We did purchase one at a pet store and after reading some of the post I will not do that again but Max is a cool tortoise and seems to be doing well. My son and I did build a table for it and i believe we have everything we need to make the little guy happy. Look forward to talking with you and having any questions i might have answered by what it looks like to be a great group of experienced tortoise lovers. I will try to post my pics of Max and the table we built. Please let me know if you see anything i should change. Thanks
