Tort?

[Alicia Marie]

Hey everyone!! I want to get a tortoise, but I live in an apartment, so he wouldn't be allowed any outside playtime. . . . Does anyone know of any torts that could be okay living in an apartment? I would supply proper lighting and all the other housing requirments. . . I would really love one. They are soooo cute. I have a red eared slider right now whose name is Squishey. I love him to bits, and he's really affectionate (in his own way) for a turtle. He really likes kisses. I was thinking of a hermans tort, but I want to know what your guys opinions are on housing a tortoise inside?

Russian torts stay small and Gofer torts also.

Here is a good link for the Russian

i am a reptile info junkey. you would be fine with a russian or greek inside. i love turts. i also have two res's. just as long as you have the proper lighting there is absolutly no reason you shouldnt be able to have one.

No problem with proper lighting and a lrg. enough pen to get proper exercise. You wouldn,t want to keep one in a small glass tank. Check out all available torts in regard to adult size. Our torts. are anything but lazy. The one is constantly on the go. Also do a little research on their diet first. Very important for proper growth. We have a russian and a yellow foot inside. But the yellow foot requires much more space. Depends on how much room you have in your apartment. We love them so much.
