This forum has been pretty dead lately!! Seems like not much is going on with us russian tort owners!! Well, its been hot as all get out here in South Louisiana, and not much rain. My russians are doing great, but I have noticed them hiding more and trying to stay cool LOL!! The male has finally quit harassing the female with breeding attempts, and she is definitely the more energetic of the two in this heat. Wondering how the heat/time of year is affecting other russians in other parts of the country??
