: Hi! I'm thinking quite hard about buying a tortoise bout know that looking after them can be hard. I am willing to keep a tortoise, I would just like to know how. Also what type of tortoises would you recommend.

From your email address, you are in the UK? If so, tortoises are really big over there. You might try the following sites for more local info:

For the most part, the Testudo species of tortoise from europe and N. Africa do best in the UK. Thanks for asking about them before just getting one and THEN asking :)
