: Well, define small,

: Hingebacks - 10-12in.
: Redfoots - 12+in.
: Stars - around 13in.

: Happy hunting!

: : What are some of the smaller tortoises commonly kept in captivity? I'm slightly interested in getting one, and I'm kinda looking around with no plans to buy yet.

---> Don't forget russians/horsfield's! They grow to 10" as well. Also, Pankake tortoises are pretty small but costlier. Horsfield's Tortoises are about as cheap as tortoises get. They are also among the "friendliest" tortoises and hardy. Good starter tortoises.
