: Teresa,
: any new tortoise you get should either be the same species ( bells hingeback) as the one you have. Or you will have to house the two seperately.

: You should NOT mix species.
: So if you do get a tortoise of a different species, if MUST be housed in a seperate enclosure and should never come into contact with your hingeback.

: If you choose another hingeback of the same species, it should be quarantined for at least 90 days. No contact with the tortoise you already have during the quarantine period.

: Check out the link below for more info.

: Hope this helps,
: Terry.

I'm planning to keep them seperately.
Thank you,
teresa
