Will these two get along?

Question

Russian Tortoise

and

Red Eared Slider

Will they get along if I put them together? they're both 4 inches, so I'm not sure.

Pleaseee answer, thank you <3

Answer 1

No, never mix species, the RES is semi-aquatic, and the russian tortoise is a land species, they need different heat.

Answer 2

if you are talking about just socializing them for a few minutes on land then you could try that.

as for living together no.  res are aquatic, tortoises are land dwellers.

Answer 3

i think they would its a matter of time.  

Answer 4

No Sweetie.  That would not be a good idea.  The Russian is a land tortoise and the Red Ear Slider is a water turtle.

The tortoise can&#039;t be in water, and the water turtle will be upset to be on land.

They need different habitats.

I hope this has been helpful, and enjoy your pets.

Answer 5

no.

especially since one needs to live in water, and the other can&#039;t swim, and sinks like a rock.
