    All 5 of my eastern Herman's survived a couple of nights at 7 degrees this past winter. I have 2 females that are well over 15 yrs old and they are huge. Over 10 inches long and 8 inches wide. I got them from my nephew who raised them both from hatchling.

I have 15 ball pythons one super dwarf retic, bearded dragon,leopard gecko and two painted turtles both rescues. When I knew I was going to be buying my tortoise I came straight to TH-cam and found your channel. I subscribed and watch almost every video. Your information has been super helpful.

    What would you say is the farthest north in the US that you'd be able to have the Western Herman's Tortoise outside in the winter? For example, would it be possible for someone in central NY to keep them outside and are any kind of modifications needed? For example would you need a deeper burrowing area with a certain kind of substrate? That being said, what is a suitable substrate for them to burrow into to brumate? The ground in certain areas tends to be more clay based which I would assume is not ideal.

If I could create him a pen from one of my garden beds that would be much easier on me, lol.

    Love your videos! Always have been a huge fan or tortoises ever since my third grade teacher had them and would bring them in. My only question for you is if someone is looking to become a tortoise owner who are some credible breeders?

    Is there a minimum group size if you're going to keep them together? I've heard keeping them in pairs can be problematic, but that may not have been in relation to this breed.

    Oh, a vegetarian tortoise is what would be ideal. Never hear of this tortoise, so beautiful.

    Thinking of a cherry head as my 1st. I have an eastern box turtle but am looking for a tortoise that doesn't get too big (since I'll have to bring it in at winter time) but also handles Midwest summer heat/humidity

    Chris, your passion for this species shines through. Is there a particular locale of Thh that is more cold hardy than the others?
