I currently have two sulcata tortoises...about two years old and have them outside on a piece of land. I was wondering if I could place two leopard tortoises in the same enclosure? Will this cause any problems health or otherwise? Thanks

I don't have either so these are only my views on that. Very Happy

I believe that if they have enough room to get out of each other's hair, it shouldn't be a problem since their environment requirements are similar, they should also have either their own water dish or a big enough one that they can share without competing for it, I don't know how territorial they are but it is better to be safe than sorry. Very Happy
