Box Turtle and Tortoise Discussion :: Can a Tortoise live indoors?

[Herp Lover]

I was thinking about getting a Tortoise but I would have to keep it indoors most of the time and I read that they don't do well indoors. Is there a Tortoise that can live indoors and what kind of set-up would it need?

They can, but requirements can wildly vary. First determine how much space you can commit to it, then go from there...

Probably a smaller tortoise more than anything. Russian, Greek, Hermans. etc

Thanks, I am looking at Russians.

Check out the care sheets on Austinsturtlepage.com... it's a great way to quickly see their requirements.
