It is not recommended to house different species of tortoises together as they may have different habitat requirements, diets, and behaviors. This can lead to stress, aggression, and potential health issues for the tortoises. It is best to house tortoises of the same species together to ensure their well-being.
Russian tortoises are desert-dwelling animals and may not drink water from a bowl as often as other pets. They get most of their water from the vegetation they eat. Ensure their diet includes fresh leafy greens, which can provide necessary hydration. If you are concerned, you can try offering a shallow dish of water or misting the enclosure to increase humidity.
Turtles and Tortoises have highly similar DNA, as tortoises are a subgroup of turtles.
tortoises don't like to be near pigeons (because they eat tortoises), they don't like to be picked up too many times a day and they don't like being teased.
Russian Tortoises eat often at noon and morning. Don't FORGET that Russian tortoises eat fresh food and pelleted.
Petco's tortoises are wild caught adults, according to Russian Tortoise.org, a well-respected source.

No, Russian tortoises should not consume mushrooms as they can be toxic to them. It is best to stick to a diet of leafy greens and vegetables for their health and safety.
you can find them in any desert
Because most Russian Tortoises in the pet trade are, in fact, wild caught, or are at least housed with those that are, it is advisable to go to the vet after purchase. Your vet can check for parasites that are common in wild caught tortoises.
Yes they do they hibernate 9 months a year
Russian tortoises and hermanns are both good. so are greek.
I personally believe they can, but many sites are against that. It is quite risky because the tortoises might spread diseases and viruses.
Whenever they need to ! There is no set number of times a day !
