Russian Tortoises
by: Anonymous

Usually a male Russian Tortoise is pretty happy to see a female Russian in his enclosure, that is unless there are two males and then there can be some fighting amongst the males. Just watch your two Tortoises and if there is a problem separate them for a few days. They usually like the new company of one another.
