We got two Russians about 1 week ago and one red foot right after (my wife thinks red foot is beautiful).
Russians are from PetSmart and red foot is from Petco (we already spent 2000+ to buy them plus all enclosures, a lot of equipment and food. We are almost broke lol).
I found that our red foot is really lazy alone but when we shower him together with two Russians, our red foot is really aggressive toward Russians (albeit all three are males and our red foot is smaller in size). He moves toward Russians quickly and use his head to bump against Russians.
Is this normal? Shouldn't the red foot be less aggressive? Our red foot really loves meat and we feed him worms daily along with veges and fruits (but our red foot does not like veges). Is that probably the reason that he is so aggressive? I meant eating too much meat. I heard too much meat makes people like to fight but I don't know about tortoises.
