Hi there,

I live in Orange County in Southern California. I understand there are many credible breeders who ship tortoise to different states but is there any good local breeder that I can visit first? Also I am interested in Hermanns because of their relative smaller size in adult age. Is there any other recommendation in species? Apologies first if my questions seem naive. I am new to the tortoise world even though I wanted to keep a tortoise/turtle ever since I was a kid. Thanks in advance.

There are many folks that breed pretty near every species in southern California. Best to network with people in the California Turtle and Tortoise Club to meet them.
https://tortoise.org/

They have many events and meetings. Take into account that most of the folks in this club may be less internet 'hooked-up' so meeting in person is what they do. I'm in San Diego and that's how it works here with their T&T club. You got to press the flesh (shake hands). Old School networking.
