New Michigan Tortoise Owner!

[Loganius]

Hello! I'm Logan, I live in Michigan, and I just recently purchased my first tortoise ever! I've owned a bearded dragon and a painted turtle so I'm not entirely new to reptiles, but nothing is quite like a tortoise! I've owned my little Russian guy for four days now and he seems to be adjusting really well. He is already eating out of my hand, urated healthily once, and seems to be perky and curious. More pictures/videos in the near future.

This forum helped me greatly in the weeks leading up to the purchase of my tortoise! The information on the care sheets and from the veteran members is priceless!

Hello Logan

The butt shots looks like a baby's diaper shot !

Here are some photos of my little guy! I haven't decided on a name yet, but I think Dmitri fits him pretty well

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Yeah, Dmitri sounds appropriate.
Make sure you keep the substrate nice and moist.
Really lovely looking tortoise.
