Hi & welcome.
I have 2 dwarf hermanns, (testudo hermanni hermanni)very cute tortoises,, they only get to about 15cm, the only problem is, they are very hard to find & much more expensive than THB's. Marg. |

I think you are making the right descision getting a dwarf hermann's (Hermanni Hermanni) . I have 2 and they are so friendly and cute, I love mine sooo much. I got mine from Spalding near Peterborough.

I have 2 toddler Herman tortoises - now 2 years old. They are definately still small but growing at their own pace. After 50 years they might just be the size of my hand? Is that too big or too long to wait for them growing up. They love the veranda and the window ledge just fine. They do not like draughts of any sort.
I learn something new every day = especially how to slow down myself and just relax.... |
