Hermann or Horsfield?
Ok, I know there isn't much to choose between them (biased owners will disagree of course, ha!) but, simple question from a very new first timer ...
Horsfield or Hermann?! |

Herman, very pretty, fairly active, of the two species they're the more placid , and if you got another are more likely to get along. Horsfields can be very aggressive and like to dig down and disappear for a few weeks ( according to owners on here ) . Don't rule out iberas , they're very nice, but quite big.

I'm going to have to agree with Stells on this one, Horsfield's are just lovely!
