Hello,

>>Hi, i have a few questions, i was wonderin if anyone can post pictures of there egyptian tortoise enclsoure, also would a greek tortoise and egyptian tortoise be alright to house together?

Sorry, I don't have a pic of how my Egyptians are set up, but I will say this (please take NO offense). 'Greek' torts (along with Egyptians) can carry some VERY nasty diseases including herpes. I would strongly suggest that you never keep anything with an Egyptian other than one of it's own kind (hopefully another healthy one). Egyptians are FAR too rare to potentially expose to a more 'common' tort like a Greek. Hope that makes sense and does not come out wrong. Basically, do everything in your power to 'protect' an Egyptian from ALL other torts.

Matt
