Question How do i find a mate for a male tortoise?

Hi everyone,

My partner currently has a five year old year tortoise and were looking to get him aka toru, a friend. He's a hermanns tortoise and i'm unsure if I should get a male or female?? Do males get along, will females be impregnated as soon as their eyes meet across the room?

The only thing is i'm moving back to my parents for a year and i'm a little concerned about how it will go down. Toru hasn't seen another tortoise since he came to live with us. If I get another tortoise and they meet for a few days (while i'm staying with my partner) and he/she comes back with me to my parents will they be upset, in a tortoise sort it away, if you know what I mean? Would it be cruel to let them meet intermittedly, should i just not let them meet until they can share the same house?

Mainly should I get a boy or a girl?

Any advice would be useful,

Thank you
