Hi, new to the forum. We just built a 6ft x 10 ft outdoor enclosure with a heated box and rescued 2 male Russians last week. I've been getting great information from all the forum posts and continue to search and read!
Hello Ken Is your vet on the TFO it's free and very informative . The reason I ask is he's a vet but is he a reptile vet ? Cause it's not worth the risk not to separate the torts .Thanks for the advice. I did read up on that on the Russian Tortoise section of the forums. They seem OK right now with the big enclosure and I'm pretty sure they are still juvenile. I will watch for aggression. I am on the list for another adoption with a local Turtle and Tortoise rescue and if another male comes up I will probably go for him. The two I got were checked by a vet that specializes in reptiles. They should have been separated, but since I received them together I kept them together.
