Western Hermann tortoise for sale

Hermann tortoise for sale are some of the most popular species of captive-bred tortoises.  Small, friendly, and quite fun, these small to medium-sized tortoises can make great additions to your reptile collection.  Eastern Hermann’s tortoises, like most Testudo family tortoises, originate in Europe.  There are 2 main subspecies of Hermann’s tortoise.  Western Hermann’s tortoise is the smaller of the 2.

Caring for an Western Hermann tortoise is reasonably easy, so long as you invest the time to learn.  Russians are fairly small tortoises and therefore only require a small habitat, at full maturity of say 2×4′, though larger is always better.  Multiple female Russian tortoises may be housed together in groups of up to 6, but size should be 4 cubic feet larger per female.  Using a tortoise table, or tortoise house kit will work, just pay close attention to temperature and humidity.  A baby tortoise, in general, will need higher humidity as the main variable for success.

Western Hermann’s tortoises are easy to care for!

Hermann’s tortoises are easy to care for and make great additions to any reptile family.  If you are considering purchasing a baby Hermann’s tortoise for sale online from the Turtle store, we recommend the well started babies.  Eastern Hermann’s tortoise hatchlings are a bit more difficult to care for.  Things like temperature and humidity must be much more “exact or spot on” with hatchings.  Whereas, with well-started babies, you have a greater degree of variance that will be acceptable or suitable for them.

We have some beautiful baby Western Hermann’s (Testudo hermanni hermanni) Tortoises for sale. These little hatchlings are super active, vibrantly colored baby tortoises. Aprox 2.25-2.5″ in size. Our Western Hermann’s tortoises are from the Tuscany region of Italy, and therefore called “Tuscan Locale”. The Tuscan locale has the most vibrant neon yellow/green over deep black contrast, making them our favorite pet tortoises for sale.

Western Hermann’s Tortoise Lifespan

Western Hermann’s tortoise Size vs Eastern Hermann’s Tortoise Size

Typically, Eastern Hermann’s tortoises are going to be noticeably larger than their western cousins.  An Eastern Hermann’s will grow 6-9″ with a few females reaching as much as 10″ in length.  Western Hermann’s tortoise males will reach 4-6″ and females 6-8″ in overall length.

Hermann’s tortoise water

Giving your baby Hermanns access to water is preferred, and soaking daily is required.  Soak your baby tortoise in a shallow soaking dish with opaque sides so the tortoise cannot see out.  Soak for 10 minutes in 85-88 degree warm water once daily.  Typically soaking your tortoise and then placing them directly atop their pile of greens and Mazuri is best each morning.  Establishing a daily routine when possible will benefit your tortoise a great deal.

Western Hermann’s tortoise diet

Variety is key when talking about what to feed your new Hermann’s tortoise.  It isn’t really about one thing, it is about feeding a wide variety of high-quality greens and veggies.  By feeding a variety you will ensure not to “overdose” your tortoise on certain things.  For example, spinach is bad.  If you feed spring mix that contains spinach as one of 15 ingredients, it will not be too much where you need to worry about spinach.  If all that you ever feed is spring mix, then you have a problem.  Turtle store uses a mixture we chop daily of Romaine, Kale, Dandelion, Spring Mix, Endive, Collard, Mustard, and Beet Greens.  In addition, we soak our mazuri tortoise chow in water mixed with a 50:50 ratio of calcium with D3 AND Vionate (a multi-vitamin and mineral powder).

Hermann’s are known for being more colorful of the 2 species of Hermann’s tortoise and stay much smaller, only growing 5″-8″ at full maturity making them absolutely fantastic pet tortoises. The Hermann’s tortoise care sheet will provide you a great amount of data regarding the ease of caring for these great tortoises. Eastern Hermann’s tortoises make great family members and get along well with other tortoises and most respectful other pets.
