Large tortoises are for the most part eating, pooping, peeing tanks. During the cooler months these near 100 lb. tortoises are housed in a re-enforced, chain link dog pen. The amount of waste one tortoise can generate is staggering. They're awesome critters but not good captives for the average herper.

Russian Tortoises are cute and the males only get from 6-8" inches as adults.

Aww how cute... and yet magnificent at the same time. Hard to believe my little guy is going to end up like that, I've had him since December and he has not grown one bit!
